McFeely retells the history--and enters the current-day lives--of the people who inhabit Sapelo's Island off the coast of Georgia, descendants of slaves who once worked its plantations. It is a richly detailed work of historical reconstruction, a sensitive portrait of black Americans in this place and in our own time, and a moving meditation on race.
