Another South in the 1960s, place of inner turmoil, where ordinary people struggled to right themselves 1965 when black field hand Isaac Reynolds goes missing from the town of Glory, Alabama. Townspeople's reactions are of concern to indifference!
Unlikely friend. White, young Pete McLean has nothing to gain and everything to lose in his relentless search for Isaac. In his quest to find Reynolds he blurs the hard lines of race, class, and religion.
In his quest to find another "human" who is in need- the question is what do they all discover about themselves?
The author writes in a style that draws the reader in as if you are actually present during the conversation between the characters and gives vivid descriptions of everything in the landscape of the story.
I plan to use this book as group reader
