In a small town in the Mississippi Delta, Luke May teaches local
history to students too young to remember the turmoil of the civil
rights era. Luke himself was just a child in 1962 when James
Meredith's enrollment at Ole Miss provoked a bloody new battle in
the old Civil War. But when a long-lost friend suddenly returns to
town, bringing with her a reminder of the act of searing violence
that ended her childhood, Luke begins to realize that his
connection to the past runs deeper than he ever could have
imagined. An intricate novel of family secrets, extramarital
affairs, and political upheaval, "Safe from the Neighbors "is a
magnificent achievement.
