In Depression-era Alabama, a white boy meets a Black boy from Detroit, who opens his eyes to the complexity and opportunities in their world.
In 1937, the Depression is in full force, Joe Louis is the new heavyweight champion of the world, and Champion Always Luther arrives in Snow Hill, Alabama, changing Brother Sayre's life forever. Brother lives with his mother and sister in their well-run if run-down boardinghouse. Champion has been sent to live with his aunt, who works for Brother's family. With Champion, Brother learns all sorts of things―that he enjoys fishing, that he needs glasses, and that there are subtle and powerful rules of race and power that he's never noticed. A child of privilege, Brother has never questioned the ways of his small southern town―but now he has reason to.
Sara Harrell Banks sets her dramatic story of an adolescent friendship during a troubled, complex time in history, when resources were scarce and segregation was firmly in place.

Σχετικά με τον συγγραφέα
Sara Harrell Banks was raised in Georgia and Alabama by loving and eccentric relatives. She came from a newspaper family and followed in the tradition of her great-grandfather, who was editor and publisher of the Choctaw Herald, and her grandmother, who was his printer’s devil and longed to write stories for the paper. She was the author of several books for young readers, including Remember My Name, Abraham’s Battle: A Novel of Gettysburg, and Under the Shadow of Wings, which was named an American Bookseller Pick of the Lists and compared to To Kill a Mockingbird by School Library Journal. She died in 2020.
