NOTES
Read by Jennifer Ikeda
Internationally acclaimed author Angela Davis-Gardner draws inspiration from Puccini's Madame Butterfly to craft this deftly imagined furthering of the famed opera's main characters. Benjamin Franklin Pinkerton and his wife Kate bring a three-year-old Japanese boy home to their Illinois farm. But when their neighbors learn the truth about the boy's heritage, the fallout is devastating. "In its way, it holds its own alongside the modern Western masterpieces of Larry McMurtry and Cormac McCarthy."-Kirkus Reviews
