Uncle Wonderful: An Unconventional Love Story
"Uncle Wonderful" is a book of three love stories, one unconventional and two romantic. The unconventional love story, and keep in mind this is in no way physical, is between a nephew and his gay uncle. The romantic love stories are between the nephew and his wife, and the uncle and a new love. Twenty-nine -year old Jake Ford and his wife Maddy have just moved to Southern California where Jake reconnects with his Uncle Frank. Frank's a writer who Jake hasn't seen in twenty three years. Jake and Maddy are crazy in love with each other and their sex life has always been hyper satisfying. But is that enough to keep their marriage together when Jake is unwilling to confront his increasingly petrified emotional state? Maddy is hoping Uncle Frank will be able to help.Then there's a new complication when Frank is faced with a crisis of his own.This is a story that unpeels layer after layer of its main characters and if you think you know how it ends, even when you're three fourths the way through, don't be so sure

'Wright's unrelentingly bleak landscape was not merely that of the Deep South, or of Chicago, but that of the world, the human heart' James Baldwin Natural disasters, cold-blooded murders, political agitation - all haunt these dark, dramatic novellas set in an American Deep South still corrupted by its slave-owning past. But at the heart of each are the stories of the men, women and children whose resistance against oppression will come to define their lives. Originally published in 1938, Uncle Tom's Children was Richard Wright's first published work. It would establish his reputation as both a powerful storyteller and a fierce chronicler of racism, violence and oppression in America at the time.
