Více o knize
Set in the pre-Civil War South, this collection features Julius, a former slave, recounting magical tales from plantation life. Each story weaves in elements of the fantastical, such as a cursed vine and a man turned into a tree to evade separation from his wife. As Julius shares these narratives with a skeptical married couple new to the area, their differing reactions spark debates over truth and deeper meanings. The blend of humor and unsettling themes offers a unique perspective on the harsh realities of slavery.
