Reader recommendation: All God's Dangers
Loading...
I recently finished Theodore Rosengarten's All God's Dangers: The Life of Nate Shaw. What a beautiful book. It's the story of life in the American South as a sharecropper in Alabama (1885-1973) told in Shaw's own mellifluous cadence.听 Rosengarten shows the sadness and strength, the anger and quiet dignity of an incredible man.听I think聽it should be read in every school 鈥 right聽beside Faulkner, Twain, and Harper Lee.听
