![]() In urban, urbane Atlanta and rural Louisiana, two very different families try to deal with the fall-out of Roy’s imprisonment, and we read letters between the married couple but also between Roy and Celestial’s father and family lawyer. Then, one awful night, Roy is arrested for a crime he didn’t commit: perhaps indeed the crime of being black in the wrong place at the wrong time. As for the book itself – I became engrossed in it, too! Tayari Jones – “An American Marriage”Ĭelestial and Roy have been married for just over a year and are still adjusting to life as a married couple, whcih is not easy and leaves the marriage somewhat fragile. I don’t seem to read many BookCrossing books these days and certainly don’t wild release them in the numbers I used to, so it was nice to be able to do this. As she’s a BookCrosser and had registered the book, I took it on a little journey so I could read it and then release it elsewhere. I was sent this book by my friend Zoe (thank you!) after she’d posted a photo mentioning she was engrossed in it. ![]()
