This magnificent novel is a fiction filled with passion, thrills, and adventures, and it includes a flair of religious beliefs beliefs that demonstrate strong characteristics in the characters.
After over fifty-seven years of composition (intense meditation and creativity), the author brings to life a well-developed Beasley family saga (six generations) that relied on hard work, courage, dreams, and God to give them strength to escape impoverishment, deadly romances, triumphs, and tribulations. Female matrons paved the way as traditions molded passionate hearts. High expectations to rise above poverty with rewards (happiness and wealth) were driven via romance, strong family connectivity, and education. As they embarked upon new territory internal and external to the Mississippi Delta they survived floods and economic downfalls, wars and societal upheavals, untimely deaths, and heartfelt relationships resulting in pleasure and deep conflicts even murder. The author was born in such an environment where only the strongest survived!
So be it as it was mysteries unfold like unto diamonds in the rough in this fictional publication. An in-depth creation of characters & events gives life to individuals trapped in an era of American history via which they are freed as readers are enlightened & entertained. A vivid imagination allows readers to peek into a bittersweet, mysterious realm where secrets are told spreading like wildfire among tall cotton and catfish ponds.
An Unclaimed Race of people (Mulattos) created during slavery survives enduring journeys in spite of many evils, triumphs, and tribulations. Before burials in soil from whence they d risen (disappearing like unto dust whirling across a broad delta plain), four of life s secrets to happiness became their golden treasures: (1) Eros Love; (2) Storge Love; (3) Philia Love; and (4) Agape Love in After The Flames Have Cooled.
