Synopsis

You Can Go Home Again opens with a story of growing up black in the hostile and segregated South, where even at nine years old, Dave already realizes a striking difference between how black and white people are treated. Dave's parents are law-abiding citizens and God-fearing Christians, but this is still the era of segregation with its rampant racism, and a time when a black boy faces a dismal future. Determined to beat the odds, Dave holds tight to his dreams even while chafing against his loving but strict upbringing. As soon as he's old enough, he joins the Marines and begins to discover the world. Upon his return from Japan, he moves to Philadelphia and begins to discover life ... and learns the hard way that dreams don't always come true. You Can Go Home Again, Fred's second book, is the prequel to his first book, The Delivery Man.

Biographie de l'auteur

Fred "Max" Roberts was born the youngest of three in Rowland, North Carolina, and attended the local public school. His father, a church deacon, and his strong-minded mother made sure their children learned to read and write. But young Fred did more than that-he learned to love writing. When Fred isn't working on another book, he loves traveling, music, art and photography. The Homegoing of Howard Lee Johnson is Fred's third book in the series Tales From Dave's Bar. His first book, The Delivery Man, and second book, You Can Go Home Again, are the prequels.
