About this book
This National Book Award finalist follows Isaiah and Samuel, two enslaved men whose intimacy becomes both sanctuary and threat on a brutal plantation. Jones weaves African spiritual traditions with a searing indictment of American violence. A novel that reimagines the past to speak urgently to our present.
