Full Description
"We is shadows. And shadows is seen, not heard." In pre-Civil war Georgia, Toy and Colis spend long days on the plantation silently serving adolescent twins Mittie and Daniel. But in the dead of night their world comes alive, as they lie beneath their masters' beds whispering stories to each other through a vent in the wall. When Father announces the family is moving to Louisiana, the children face uncertain futures. Do they dare come out of the shadows? A compelling testament to the power of the human spirit from Kemp Powers, the Oscar-nominated writer of One Night in Miami, and one of America's most promising playwrights.
