"This haunting, slender novel is a kind of tiny Rosetta Stone to Toni Morrison’s entire oeuvre." - New York Times
An angry and self-loathing veteran of the Korean War, Frank Money finds himself back in racist America after enduring trauma on the front lines that left him with more than just physical scars. His home -- and himself in it -- may no longer be as he remembers it, but Frank is shocked out of his crippling apathy by the need to rescue his medically abused younger sister and take her back to the small Georgia town they come from, which he's hated all his life.

This month on Facebook: books from every angle
30 April 2012This month books met food in a terrifying series of puns, met gratuitous nudity in a radical new shelving system, and met eskimo architecture in the world's first book igloo. Our friends also got a 10% discount on World Book Day, and were fooled and entertained in roughly equal measure with a slightly risky April Fools joke.
Like us to stay updated in real time!
