Sugarcane Saint: The First Book of Ruth (The Ruth Trilogy) - Softcover
Book 1 of 2: The Ruth Trilogy
Synopsis
Born in 1912 beneath the shadow of the mystical Stone Mountain to a middle-class Georgia farm family, Ruth Shurlington is an unremarkable, though imaginative child who idolizes her father and is mesmerized by the lives of her four older sisters. Evangelical faith and southern tradition guide Ruth and her family through the uncertainties of changing times until an untimely death causes their world to crumble.
In the aftermath of loss, Ruth navigates her servant-like role in a family divided between their failing rural farm and the encroaching urban landscape of nearby Atlanta. When Quillan Johnson, Ruth's childhood friend and the son of the local preacher proposes marriage, Ruth is certain her life is on the right path. The perfect circle of Biblical womanhood that she has revered in her sisters is on the verge of opening to her. But a chance encounter with Leonidas Brantley, a dangerously charming migrant worker ignites Ruth's darker curiosity. Through a series of tragic events, she is left unprotected- prey to the wolf that hunts her. On one fatal Sunday afternoon, she sets in motion a savage cycle of violence that prowls through four generations.
Set in the segregated American South and inspired by true events, the Ruth Trilogy traces the formation of an agonizing family cycle. Ruth's story reveals with brutal honesty how deeply our lives are shaped by the families into which we are born. Across four generations, the trilogy exposes the danger of family systems that value preserving themselves more than protecting the people within them, showing how even structures built on love, faith, and good intentions can become destructive when left unquestioned. At its heart, the trilogy examines how violence breeds further violence, leaving the next generation to navigate its painful legacy.

Condition: Muy bueno. Haskell, MacKenzie (illustrator). : Nacida en 1912 bajo la sombra de la mística Stone Mountain en una familia de granjeros de Georgia, Ruth Shurlington es una niña imaginativa cuya vida está guiada por la fe evangélica y las tradiciones del sur de Estados Unidos. Sin embargo, tras la muerte de su padre, Ruth debe navegar por un rol de servidumbre en una familia dividida entre el campo y la creciente Atlanta, enfrentándose a una encrucijada entre el matrimonio tradicional y la peligrosa curiosidad que despierta un carismático trabajador migrante.Esta primera entrega de la trilogía 'The Ruth Trilogy' explora con honestidad brutal cómo el entorno familiar define nuestro camino y cómo la violencia puede engendrar un ciclo que afecta a múltiples generaciones. Ambientada en el sur segregado, la obra ofrece una vívida comparación entre el patriarcado benigno y el abusivo, revelando la delgada línea que los separa en una historia de supervivencia y legado.
