Ty Ty Walden es un viudo arruinado por su obsesión: la búsqueda de oro. Su creencia en ello es tan ferviente que arrastra a su familia en la tarea y, pese a llevar quince años sin resultados, su empeño no cesa y sigue cavando en lo que una vez fue su plantación. En la finca viven con él su hija y su nuera. La primera, Darling Jill es soltera, atractiva, promiscua y reacia al matrimonio; la segunda, Griselda, está casada con Buck, su primogénito. La obsesión llega a tal punto que el viejo ávaro secuestra a un albino por sus supuestos poderes adivinatorios, el cual acepta tentado por la presencia de Darling Jill. Ty Ty Walden tiene una segunda hija, Rosamond, que vive en Scottsville casada con un obrero textil, Will Thompson. Esta historia se desarrollará en paralelo con su propia tragedia interna. Enredos sexuales, traiciones familiares, muertes y obsesiones desencadenarán un final trágico en La parcela de Dios .
"Světově proslulý Caldwellův román, který vyvolal nejživější zájem už při svém prvním vyjití v r. 1933. Udržuje si jej podnes pravdivě drsnou kresbou jak hrdinů děje, rozvíjejícího se kolem podivínského farmáře, posedlého vírou v objevení zlata na svých pozemcích, tak proletarizaci propadajícího prostředí venkova amerického Jihu a lidských vztahů, ve kterých je mocnou hnací silou sexus, neuznávající a nedbající mravních ani jiných zábran."

"Like Tobacco Road, this novel chronicles the final decline of a poor white family in rural Georgia. Exhorted by their patriarch Ty Ty, the Waldens ruin their land by digging it up in search of gold. Complex sexual entanglements and betrayals lead to a murder within the family that completes its dissolution. Juxtaposed against the Waldens' obsessive search is the story of Ty's son-in-law, a cotton mill worker in a nearby town who is killed during a strike. First published in 1933, God's Little Acre was censured by the Georgia Literary Commission, banned in Boston, and once led the all-time best-seller list, with more than ten million copies in print."@en
