Over a century later, the Honeys' descendants and a diverse group of neighbors are poor, isolated, and often hungry, but nevertheless protected from the hostility awaiting them on the mainland. During the tumultuous summer of 1912, Matthew Diamond, a retired, idealistic but prejudiced schoolteacher turned missionary, disrupts the community's fragile balance through his efforts to educate its children. His presence attracts the attention of authorities on the mainland who, under the influence of the eugenics-thinking popular among progressives of the day, decide to forcibly evacuate the island, institutionalize its residents, and develop the island as a vacation destination. 650 0 $a Islands $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Eugenics $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Race relations $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Missionaries $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Audiobooks. 650 0 $a Historical fiction. 700 1 $a Ballerini, Edoardo, $d 1970- $e narrator. 941 $a 2 945 $a cdab 952 $l SMPE094 $d 20240104021505.0 952 $l XXPH787 $d 20230512010731.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=A2F59F62A45911EDA94333522DECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IWBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
