Tuscaloosa

In a sensitive and sensual coming-of-age story, Phillips offers a poignant critique of the Southern novel genre, in which he questions the very foundations of his society — one that condemns women who take blacks or other women as lovers while rewarding the men who commit these women to mental institutions, abort their babies, and drive them to violent death.
