The Walkers, wracked by the loss of their only son to the war, hire the brothers to work their farm, hoping through an unexpected friendship to stanch their grief. Prentiss and Landry, meanwhile, plan to save money for the journey north and a chance to reunite with their mother, who was sold away when they were boys. Parallel to their story runs a forbidden romance between two Confederate soldiers. The young men, recently returned from the war to the town of Old Ox, hold their trysts in the woods. But when their secret is discovered, the resulting chaos, including a murder, unleashes convulsive repercussions on the entire community. In the aftermath of so much turmoil, it is Isabelle who emerges as an unlikely leader, proffering a healing vision for the land and for the newly free citizens of Old Ox"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Freedmen $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Brothers $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Farmers $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Gay military personnel $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Georgia $x History $y Civil War, 1861-1865 $v Fiction. 650 7 $a Gay military personnel. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01740511 650 7 $a Freedmen. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00933987 650 7 $a Farmers. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00921321 650 7 $a Brothers. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00839665 651 7 $a Georgia. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204622 648 7 $a 1861-1865 $2 fast 655 7 $a Gay fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Historical fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 655 7 $a Historical fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01726640 655 7 $a Gay fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01986220 655 7 $a Fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423787 655 7 $a Novels. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01921742 655 7 $a Historical fiction. $2 gsafd 655 7 $a Novels. $2 lcgft 830 0 $a Oprah's Book Club. 941 $a 3 $n 1 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20240611150048.0 $n 11 $p + 1 LP, 1 CD 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20240124113517.0 $n 10 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20211206125208.0 $m Book Discussion Harris $n 5 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=CF0E452C569E11ECA3C586EB0E3FDB2A 994 $a C0 $b IOZInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
