Artikelbeschreibung des Verkäufers

Paperback. In early nineteenth-century Georgia, a father's promise becomes a prison, a daughter's silence becomes rebellion, and a man held in bondage is forced into the center of a house built on lies.Lenora Jackson has spent most of her life inside the shadow of her father's plantation house. Paralyzed from the waist down after a childhood fever, she has endured years of pity, failed courtships, and polite rejection from families who see her not as a woman, but as a burden. Her father, Gideon Jackson, is determined that she will not be left unmarried, dependent, or exposed to the gossip of Wilkes County.But Gideon's world is collapsing. His estate is drowning in debt. His fields cannot produce enough cotton to satisfy his creditors. His dead wife's property has been spent, sold, or pledged away. With no respectable marriage prospects left for Lenora, Gideon makes a decision he calls protection.He forces a private "covenant" between Lenora and Josiah, the strongest and most trusted enslaved man on the plantation.To Gideon, it is order. To Reverend Pike, it is an irregular but necessary household arrangement. To the county, it becomes a rumor too scandalous to name plainly. But to Lenora and Josiah, it is something far more brutal: coercion dressed as duty, ownership disguised as care, and a lie placed in the mouth of God.As the arrangement tightens around them, Lenora begins reading the ledgers her father hoped to keep hidden. What she discovers changes everything: debt, sale lists, family secrets, burned papers, and the terrifying truth that the lives of Josiah, his mother Hester, his brother Ben, and others on the plantation have all been reduced to figures in Gideon's books.Set against the red clay roads, cotton fields, churchyards, back steps, and hidden rooms of Georgia in 1806, Red Clay Daughter is a Southern Gothic historical novel about slavery, disability, family power, religious hypocrisy, and the cost of naming the truth in a world built to silence it.Dark, intimate, and morally unflinching, Corey Mack's novel asks a devastating question: When a house is built on ownership, what must burn before anyone inside it can be free?
