Product Description
(The events recorded in this novel occur during the 1930s in a small Mississippi town, but the range of characters, emotions and social forces, and the inexorable march to doom of a ten-year-old black boy and the society that dooms him, catapult the story beyond a specific time and location)

mysmugcat (United Kingdom) (2010/12/20):
I'm just going to make short comments about my books for now: this book imho starts off slowly,at first the language confused me,but then added to the suspense and drama in the plot.This book deeply disturbed me, but I think it is an important read and challenges your views on race,politics and law.
