About the Book

ABOUT THE BOOK

"A mountain's a task you fix for your spirit, a wild horse the challenge to your soul."

There was a boy and his father and his grandfather, and they were divided by a generation of anger. The ties that bound them had dissolved.

Then one magnificent horse and the legend of another rose out of the past to bind man to man and father to son.

With the same lyrical intensity that distinguished her American Book Award winner, Marked by Fire, Joyce Carol Thomas expands upon the story of a community, and brings to life the extraordinary essence of everyday people.

"A novel of superb passion and superior power. If you had only two books you could read in your life, one of them should be
The Golden Pasture."

James Baldwin
