Description

Leaving Atlanta is a moving novel by Tayari Jones that explores the struggles of growing up and surviving in a world filled with everyday challenges and constant fear. Set against the backdrop of a two-year nightmare in which African-American children were vanishing, the story follows fifth-grade classmates as they face safety lessons, terrified parents, and the all-too-sudden changes that can sweep young lives forever.

The book captures the piercing quality of childhood, revealing the hurts, little wins, and merciless forces that shape lives. With its compelling and clear language, Leaving Atlanta sheds light on the devastating truths at the heart of ordinary lives.
