Clock Without Hands, Paperback/Carson McCullers

The aged Judge Clane dreams of resurrecting the confederacy, while his grandson, Jester, is involuntarily drawn to Sherman, a volatile black orphan who feels the sharp sting of racial injustice. Through the eyes of these individuals, the author explores the roots of racial prejudice, and the dual moralities of the town's leading whites.
