Synopsis

Angel In The Outhouse is a collection of short stories about the ordinary life of an African American family during the extraordinarily tumultuous time of the Civil Rights Movement. This is the oft-forgotten tale of America - the common frailties, quiet triumphs, and fierce determination of a people to stand firm against the life-changing tragedies placed in their path every day.
