Never Cry Again

By Jim Cole

Book Overview

Suspenseful and original, Never Cry Again tells the story of a boy in rural southern Arkansas during America's Great Depression, forced from his home at age 10 into a life of poverty, hunger, and survival. Afraid and alone, knowing that he can trust only the Black community that has surrounded him, Drew undertakes his dangerous but remarkable journey. Given temporary shelter by a gambler and bootlegger, the boy is witness to robbery and murder and must flee, knowing that he will be hunted and perhaps killed to keep him from telling authorities what he knows. Drew's adventures as he seeks safety on his way to responsible and compassionate manhood paint a compelling mosaic of life in the 1930s American South.
