Description
The Sweet Summer is a moving novel of deep friendship and commitment between a white man and his black peers in a time and a place where such relationships were rare and considered with contempt. It portrays with brutal honesty the humiliations suffered by African Americans in the Jim Crow South in the 1940's.
