About this listen

Twenty-eight-year-old Even Grade is a Black man who was orphaned as a child. 15-year-old Valuable Korner is a White girl who might as well have been orphaned. Petal, Mississippi, circa 1956, seems an unlikely spot for these two to connect, but a friendship forged across race lines is just one of many miracles waiting to happen in this small Southern town.

Their paths cross through Joody Two Sun, a seer with amazing powers. Forming something that resembles a family, they discover priceless things they never had: unconditional love, human connection, and enduring commitment.
