Summer 2014


A Novel, by Susan Follett
 

Set against the backdrop of the civil rights movement from 1954 to 1964, a twelve-year-old girl, a young black woman who’s left Mississippi for Chicago, and a Freedom Summer volunteer collide as each questions what freedom means
and what price they’ll pay to have it.

"A literal page turner whose language is rich and graphic, sometimes poetic and prophetic.  
A coming of age tale woven from the spectrum of cultural collisions our society offers:
religious, racial, educated or not, rural or urban, rich or poor.
Out From The Fog should be read, heard, and shared.”

—Jackie Roberts, member of Seattle’s The BookClub, now 22 years running,
     and co-founder of the Interracial Dialogue Series at Seattle Public Libraries
