Wanted

Black Lexington, Kentucky is hopping in 1948, Cab Calloway even playing at the Lyric. But housing is still tight, especially for "colored." Rudy Johnson takes his young family out to the wilds of nearby Scott County, certain the Ku Klux Klan is long gone. But is it? / "Joseph Anthony has written a pitch perfect novel about race, class, and struggle in the heartland. Driven by voice and longing, Wanted: Good Family is the work of a writer in top form, capable of showing how the social and familial intertwine in the making of American character." Charles Dodd White, author of A Shelter of Others
