Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This book explores the complexities of familial relationships, secrets, and the devastating consequences of fear in the hearts of those keeping them. It is set in the rural Southern United States in the pre-automobile age, likely the late 19th or very early 20th century. The story focuses on a mother named Miss Sugarlump who is living with her young son, John, after the tragic death of his father. She is haunted by a terrible secret and desperate to protect her son from any harm that could befall him. After several years of isolation, John is finally old enough to attend the local schoolhouse, which excites him greatly. However, the very first day John attends school, he encounters a peer, Hugh, who immediately becomes an antagonist towards him. As the two boys continue to clash, Miss Sugarlump's fears begin to consume her until she seeks advice from the kindly old schoolmaster, Gilbert Rolfe. Secrets are revealed and concerns are shared as the adults debate what should be done about the boys and the underlying reasons for their disturbing behavior. This book is a compelling and moving exploration of the complexities of the human heart, the bonds of family, and the lengths to which people will go to protect those they love. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.
