Podrobnosti o e‑knize

Billy Don't, a novel, takes place in Oakland, and other parts of California during the 1930's. It is a story of the conflicts and behaviors which take place in a young boy who is placed with his older sister and younger brother in a boarding home run by the Blair's.
The conflict comes form the evangeslistic preaching of Mrs. Blair who constantly tells Billy, "Your sole will turn black" or "God will send you to the Devil," and the other understandings he has gained from his grandmother who has taught, "God sees the good in you."
Billy's often wild and vicious behaviors are driven by his hatred for Mrs. Blair.
It is a story of young boy's desperate search for love and understanding.
