Franklin's novel starts off slow, by this perhaps is by design, to illustrate Larry Ott's shadowy, sheltered, and lonely existence. The writing picks up nicely and takes the reader on a flashback-present narrative to show the culture clash in Mississippi between Ott's lower-middle-class family situation and that of Silas Jones'. Tragedy draws the men together in their youth, dividing them and reuniting them as adults.
