About this product

Product Information

Newlyweds Celestial and Roy are the embodiment of both the American Dream and the New South. He is a young executive, and she is an artist on the brink of an exciting career. But as they settle into the routine of their life together, they are ripped apart by circumstances neither could have imagined. Roy is arrested and sentenced to twelve years for a crime Celestial knows he didn't commit. Though fiercely independent, Celestial finds herself bereft and unmoored, taking comfort in Andre, her childhood friend, and best man at their wedding. As Roy's time in prison passes, she is unable to hold on to the love that has been her center. After five years, Roy's conviction is suddenly overturned, and he returns to Atlanta ready to resume their life together. This stirring love story is a profoundly insightful look into the hearts and minds of three people who are at once bound and separated by forces beyond their control. An American Marriage is a masterpiece of storytelling, an intimate look deep into the souls of people who must reckon with the past while moving forward--with hope and pain--into the future.

    Amazing

    I was reluctant to indulge in what I'd anticipated would be a soap opera of a novel. Another book version of the shows on Oprah's tv network. I didn't think it would be bad, just too dramatic for my liking. But boyyyyy.... Was. I. WRONG. I will never forget this book. The depths of emotions it provoked. The questions it made me ask. The quotes that gripped me. The language of prose that melted my heart. I found this novel not to be a story, but an exploration of ideas, feelings, growth and the nature of conflict itself. Throughout each changing narrative perspective, challenged were my beliefs about happiness, duty, entitlement, familial heirarchy, honesty and integrity, honesty *VS* integrity, self-worth and the very foundation of the institution of marriage in the 21st century. All ...

  • Heart wrenching story of 3 daughters in a relationship they don’t yet understand

    This book looks at several issues: gender, race and social norms told from the viewpoint of 2 daughters. Things are not always as they seem, but the crushing weight of lies impacts both girls in who they are, what they become, their relationships and self worth. Heart wrenching at times.

  • Interesting book

    This is very well written and it is a compelling story. The focus switches back and forth between characters to give you different perspectives.
