Louis D. Rubin Jr. - 1981
Underneath such ordinary events, enormous personal changes happen to Omar. He learns about his parents' frailties and their very different family backgrounds as he sorts through questions about his own identity and destiny. Under Louis Rubin's touch, Charleston in the late 1930s exerts its own effect on Omar's maturation. It proves a baffling, traumatic, enriching time in a boy's life, and the reader shares it acutely (Booklist).
