An intimate and moving story of racism and revolution in America's deep south...back in print for the first time in over sixty years. A small, southern town is rocked to its racist core when Maybelle Brown arrives from Philadelphia to live with her grandmother...and becomes the first black student ever enrolled in the local college. But that's only the beginning of the explosive problems her arrival creates. Maybelle soon becomes romantically involved with a white man, crossing an unthinkable line in a community terrified that a rising tide of color will destroy their heritage. Bonnie Golightly (1919-1998) was from Murfreesboro, Tennessee, where her father was a professor at Middle Tennesssee State University. She later moved to New York, where she became a folk singer, socialite, bookseller and a prolific writer perhaps best known for losing a lawsuit that accused Truman Capote of basing "Holly Golightly" in Breakfast at Tiffany's on her. She wrote several pulp novels (including The Wife Swappers, The Beat Girl, and Shades of Evil ) and movie novelizations, as well as some non-fiction books on LSD, the paranormal and sex.
