Ginny: A Yearning to Belong
In the years after the Civil War, survival often demanded impossible choices.
When twelve-year-old Ginny stands beside the grave of the only mother who ever claimed her as daughter, she understands one thing: her life will not remain as it was. The aging man who once sheltered her can no longer protect her, and in the weeks that follow, she is quietly folded into a household where her place is uncertain and her worth openly questioned.
They call her simple.
They call her slow.
They call her Dumb ol' Ginny.
What they do not see is the mind working fiercely beneath the silence - a girl listening, remembering, measuring every word spoken over her life as though it were final judgment. As the name others give her begins to settle like dust, Ginny must decide whether she will live inside it... or step beyond it.
Set against the uneasy backdrop of Reconstruction-era Georgia, Ginny: The Name They Gave Me is a story of displacement, endurance, and the quiet awakening of a young woman who refuses to be defined by the voices that sought to diminish her.
Some names are given.
Others are earned. Perfect for readers of emotionally layered Southern historical fiction and family sagas centered on strong women.
