Description:
Reynolds Price returns to the masterful narrative style of the National Book Critic's Circle Award-winning Kate Vaiden, again creating the voice and story of an extraordinary Southern woman. Born in 1900, Roxanna Slade begins her tale with her twentieth birthday -- a day that will shape her life forever. Although she has rarely left the small town she was born in, the events of two world wars, the racial divisions in this country, and her private tragedies have all left their marks on her sharp mind and vulnerable heart.
Expand description
Roxanna weaves a beguiling tale of the-modern South and of a woman whose inner strengths feed a piercingly clear vision, forth-right hungers, and immense vitality.
