HUSH, BOY, a novel about Jonathan Harding, a young boy growing up
in the Deep South, is an adventure in storytelling. This third book
of a trilogy about Dr. Jonathan Harding, thoracic surgeon and
hospital accreditation surveyor, is structured as a prequel to the
other two. The young Jonathan longs to be older, like all the
people in his life, and he searches for ways to make his
grandfather love him. A curious boy, his questions about the
departure of his father, about sex, about race, about life itself,
are never answered by the adults around him. The only answer he
gets is, "Hush, boy, we don't talk about that." Some of the novel's
chapters depict Jonathan telling his growing-up stories to his
close friend, FBI Agent Peter Larsen, and their discussions about
whether to include them in a novel Jonathan is writing. Against
odds, the young adult Jonathan makes it through medical school and
a grueling surgical residency. Grown up at last, he finally
discovers the truth about his late grandfather's love and devotion.
