Trouble No More: Stories

The critical edition of Anthony Grooms' award-winning collection of short stories, TROUBLE NO MORE, set throughout the American South, portrays middle class African Americans who reflect on the Civil Rights Movement, class, race, personal struggles and triumphs. Whether they are of a boy discovering betrayal, a man wrestling with his commitment to social activism, or a young woman's discovery of the complexity of social protest, these stories-comic or poignant-are about families, intact and estranged, about ordinary lives in extraordinary times. A perfect edition for the classroom, the stories are contextualized with critical essays, an interview, and a reader's guide.
