Produktinformationen zu „The Twelve-Mile Straight “
In a house full of secrets, two babies - one light-skinned, the other dark - are born to Elma, a white sharecropper's daughter. Accused of her rape, field hand Genus is lynched and dragged down the Twelve-Mile Straight. Combining the intimacy of a family drama with the grandeur of an American epic, The Twelve-Mile Straight is tender and savage, heart-breaking and hopeful, and deeply human.

An intimate family drama extends to the sweep of the American epic fiction of Harper Lee, Toni Morrison and William Faulkner in this return from the author of "Ten Thousand Saints". A white sharecropper's daughter in thirties Georgia gives birth to two babies, one light-skinned and one dark, setting in motion a destabilising series of confrontations.Autoren-Porträt von Eleanor Henderson
