A Black father makes amends with his gay son through letters written on his deathbed in this wise and penetrating novel of empathy and forgiveness.                                                                                                                                                                                                    As Jacob lies dying, he begins to write a letter to his only son Isaac. They have not met or spoken in many years, and there are things that Isaac must know. Stories about his ancestral legacy in rural Arkansas that extend back to slavery. Secrets from Jacob's tumultuous relationship with Isaac's mother and the shame he carries from dissolution of their family. Tragedies that informed Jacob's role as a father and his reaction to Isaac's being gay.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    But most of all, Jacob must share with Isaac the unspoken truth that reside in his heart.  He must give voice to trauma that Isaac has inherited and he must create a space for the   two to find peace...
