About this listen

In a world where hope is scarce, twelve-year-old Winter Kelland endures a life of hardship as an orphan indentured to a ruthless farming couple. His only solace comes from eight-year-old Vine, a spirited neighbor who believes in his potential for greatness through education. When Winter can no longer bear the grueling existence on the farm, he makes a daring escape, only to find that the harsh reality of life on the streets is far worse than he imagined. At his lowest point, he crosses paths with a cantankerous spinster who learns to embrace Gods call to He that honoreth Him hath mercy on the poor. The title, Eighty Seven, signifies the year Vine will celebrate her 22nd birthday with a grand feast, symbolizing her graduation from the Chautauqua Literary and Scientific Circle (CLSC) in 1887.
