Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - In the heart of 1960s Mississippi, where every act of courage risks everything, a Black police officer and his White wife dare to love-and to hope-in the shadow of segregation. 'The Sunflower' by Dawn Reno Langley follows Graham Jackson and Beth as they navigate a world hostile to their union, facing threats from the Ku Klux Klan, community scorn, and the looming danger that follows every step. When Beth discovers she is pregnant, their fears intensify, yet so does their determination to build a better life for their child. As Beth finds solace and purpose in teaching art to a gifted student, and Graham is called upon by Senator Kennedy himself to help shape the course of history, the couple is drawn deeper into the struggle for justice. Tragedy, loss, and unexpected kinship force them to make a heartrending decision: escape the only home they've known for the promise of a safer future. In this poignant and gripping novel, Langley paints a portrait of resilience and hope, reminding us that love-in all its forms-can bloom even in the most inhospitable soil.…

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Mississippi, 1960. Your marriage is a crime punishable by prison-or worse-and every stranger you meet could be the one who turns you in. Graham Jackson, a Black Boston detective, is sent south by Jack Kennedy himself to work undercover on the campaign. His wife Beth, a white painter, is planted fifty miles away in Sunflower County, where she teaches Bible-school art and writes letters she prays no one else will read. They cannot be seen together. They cannot admit they are married. They cannot stop loving each other. As Graham registers voters alongside fearless organizers and Beth mentors a gifted young artist in secret, the danger around them tightens. A dove hunt turns a sunflower field into a killing ground. A man is dragged behind a truck. And the town that welcomed Beth with pie and sweet tea is the same town that would destroy her if it knew the truth. Told through tender letters and unflinching scenes of a South on the brink, this gripping historical novel asks what love costs when the law calls it forbidden. For Beth and Graham, every reunion is a risk-and every goodbye might be their last. Dawn Reno Langley's second novel in The Art of Rivers series is a sweeping story of courage, art, and a marriage that refuses to die. This item is printed on demand.
