Editorial Reviews
Review
"Using a theme that might have been merely sensational, [Petry] builds a novel that has depth and dignity." --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

Product Description
When Link Williams, a college-educated twenty-six-year-old African-American man, falls for Camilo Sheffield, a wealthy married white woman, things will never be the same in the sleepy New England town of Monmouth, Connecticut. Set in the 1950s, this unforgettable classic deftly evokes a tragic love affair and offers a window onto the powerful ways in which class, race, and love intersected in midcentury America.
