Exploring the complexities of race and the legacy of slavery, this collection features four landmark novels by Ernest J. Gaines, a celebrated voice in American literature. Notable works include "A Lesson Before Dying," which received the National Book Critics Circle Award and was an early Oprah Book Club selection. Drawing from his experiences as the oldest of twelve in a sharecropping family in Louisiana, Gaines crafts nuanced and compassionate narratives that reflect the struggles of both Black and white characters in a racially charged society.
