Description
Lucy Wilson and her sister Ginny don't see eye to eye on anything, including whether or not their father is a criminal. In 1973, during their father's funeral in upstate New York, Lucy receives shocking evidence of his nefarious role in a highway project that destroyed Black and Jewish neighborhoods. Caught between her idealistic pursuit of truth and her delicate relationship with her sister-who joins forces with the city to honor their father with a statue-Lucy must navigate a treacherous path. How do you challenge the narrative that has defined your family for generations? And at what cost?
"I love a passionate, vivid portrait of an American city - Razed gives readers just that in this novel that explores generations of family living through the many histories of a city in New York."
Susan Straight, bestselling author of Mecca and In the Country of Women
"A stirring portrait of great conflict and intimate triumphs, RAZED deftly tethers present day 1973 with an unshakeable and selectively blind and brutal past. RAZED is a reminder of an unjust world and the prayer of a next generation on the horizon." Rita Williams-Garcia, author of A Sitting in St. James
"Lucretia Wilson Is a character to love and hate and love again. As a burgeoning feminist and social justice ally neophyte, Lucretia's innocence has an unexpected domino effect, and her rites of passage are not without great sacrifice... a poignant book for our time." Romaine Washington, author of Purgatory Has an Address
