Deep in the center of every tree, you'll find the heartwood. This
wood is the very soul of a tree. The characters in this book by
poet Nikky Finney are the heartwood of their small Kentucky
communities. You'll meet Buck Jones and Mae Bennet, whose anger has
twisted them up inside, Queenie Sims and Arizona Scott, who can see
the good in people, and Trina Sims and Jenny Bryan, two young women
who discover how much they are alike despite their different skin
color. Set in rural Kentucky, this story is filled with the sights
and sounds, hopes and hurts of a land and its people. Breathing
with life and vitality, Heartwood moves its readers to speak out
and remind the world of the goodness it so easily forgets. The
characters of Heartwood lead the way for us in this beautiful
story.
