Reseña del libro "Everything Built to Last"

Two men can hate each other for reasons a whole town understands and nobody says out loud. In 1977, the Mabry family leaves New Orleans behind for a half-forgotten mill town in North Mississippi — trading one kind of trouble for a quieter, more Southern kind, and never quite outrunning either. Over the next thirteen years, an old cotton compress becomes a furniture plant, and the furniture plant becomes a fortune — for some. Everything Built to Last follows the founders, rivals, and families who build an industry out of nothing but ambition, debt, and the willingness to keep a promise long after it stops making sense. Daniel Mabry is running from a debt he never should have owed. Barney Flowers works twice as hard for half the credit, and builds something of his own anyway. Brad and Harvey walked out of the same company on the same bad news — and instead of building something together, they built rivals, and have been fighting over workers, buyers, and standing in a town too small for both of them ever since. And around them: the wives, the sons, the mistresses, the sheriff, and the whole watching town of Nobnee — all of them building something, all of them finding out what it costs. A sweeping Southern family saga about the things people build to outlast them, and the things that don't. For readers of Halt and Catch Fire-style ensemble dramas and Southern multigenerational sagas in the tradition of Rick Bragg and Richard Ford — a novel about industry, ambition, and the slow unraveling of the people who build things that are supposed to last.
