Description



About the Book



Debut short story collection by William Henry Lewis.



Book Synopsis



Debut short story collection by William Henry Lewis.



From the Back Cover



In these nine short stories that Ann Beattie called "a powerful first collection, " Lewis brilliantly captures the complexity of African-American family life. With memories as sublime as they are precise, Lewis' characters live in these pages, struggle for meaning, and learn to love each other. The spirits that connect us all are embodied in these wise, confused, passionate people and moments poetic in their shadings.
