F. V. Edwards

Opis

F.V. Edwards set this gut level story in the early 1950's when cultural and racial difficulties were seldom publicly discussed. Several states had segregation laws and silent forms of it were practiced in most other areas. Ray and Jo Ann collide at a corner in Biloxi. They are attracted like opposite magnetic poles with karmic undertones. The miscegenation laws combine with residual prejudicial practices of the military to force them apart. Unique characters in Biloxi, Paris, Las Vegas and southern California play supportive and antagonistic roles in ending and prolonging their separation. They include members of the Tuskegee Red Tail Angels, jazz musicians, a famous singer, high level military officers, a former Negro athlete, Ray's wealthy parents, and others are involved in myriad sometimes humorous difficulties and heartbreaking circumstances leading to their meeting again the summer of 1958.
