Southern Silence

Résumé du livre

Peace is not the absence of turmoil, but rather the deep calm while hurricanes rage on the surface. The author presents herself as an eccentric, hilarious researcher, getting to the bottom of mankind's plight-to love, or to hate-and the beautiful or painful worlds that can result. An Internet blog, revealing the consequences of a rape and murder, began her quest to discover if justice can be stronger than tradition. Dare to drive with Henderson through the wastelands of industrial Chicago, down to the Mississippi Delta to dispel any paranoia of corrupt politics, while questioning the new power of the cyber mob. "Study history. Study history. In history lies all the secrets of statecraft." -Winston Churchill. Henderson masterfully weaves past, present, and future, leaving our cultures exposed, helping our wounds to heal.
