商品簡介
Black Lexington, Kentucky is hopping in 1948, Cab Calloway even playing at the Lyric. But housing is still tight, especially for "colored." Rudy Johnson takes his young family out to the wilds of nearby Scott County, certain the Ku Klux Klan is long gone. But is it? /
"Joseph Anthony has written a pitch perfect novel about race, class, and struggle in the heartland. Driven by voice and longing, Wanted: Good Family is the work of a writer in top form, capable of showing how the social and familial intertwine in the making of American character." ~Charles Dodd White, author of A Shelter of Others

作者簡介
Joseph G. Anthony, a New Jersey-born Kentucky author, moved in 1980 from what he considered the center of the country--Manhattan's Upper West Side--to Hazard, Kentucky. "It was a place so isolated and obscure that I at first felt as lost as a missing person. But it was, I discovered, its own country." In fiction he began to explore its beauty, its many problems, its strengths and its weaknesses. "Fiction feels and understands: racism is in your face, poverty on your back. News stories can only report."
Anthony, an English professor for 35 years, is a hybrid-Kentuckian now. His accent might still be North Eastern, but he sees with an insider-outsider's eye. He regularly contributes essays and poems to local periodicals and anthologies, including a poem and story in Kentucky's Twelve Days of Christmas. He's a "Kentucky Colonel" (someone once sent his name in), but he's more Kentucky peasant. He lives in Lexington, Kentucky, with his wife of 36 years, Elise Mandel, also a hybrid Kentuckian. They have three grown children. His previous books include 2 novels, Peril, Kentucky, and Pickering's Mountain, plus 2 short story collections, Camden Blues, and Bluegrass Funeral.
