Acerca de esta escucha

A courthouse shooting that leads a young reporter to uncover the long story of race and power in his small town and the relationship between the white sheriff and the black man who "whipped children" to keep order - in the final novella by the beloved Ernest J. Gaines.

After Brady Sims pulls out a gun in a courtroom and shoots his own son, who has just been convicted of robbery and murder, he asks only to be allowed two hours before he'll give himself up to the sheriff. When the editor of the local newspaper asks his cub reporter to dig up a "human interest" story about Brady, he heads for the town's barbershop. It is the barbers and the regulars who hang out there who narrate with empathy, sadness, humor, and a profound understanding the life story of Brady Sims - an honorable, just, and unsparing man who, with his tough love, had been handed the task of keeping the black children of Bayonne, Louisiana, in line to protect them from the unjust world in which they lived. And when his own son makes a fateful mistake, it is up to Brady to carry out the necessary reckoning. In the telling, we learn the story of a small Southern town divided by race and the black community struggling to survive even as many of its inhabitants head off northward during the Great Migration.

Enjoyed the book with it’s rich characters. The story telling was wonderful. I feel that I got to know these characters, but the story was a little too short for me.

Good bye Brady Sims

Mr. Gaines has the ability of taking the reader to a place and time, not experienced by many. which is the reason I absolutely love his novel.

A transcendent story

this is a story that has to be carefully listened to. I think I knew the ending but I kept listening. it was genius. I could just see Louisiana as I listened. Mr. E. Gaines is the best.

True story teller.
