Growing up in Missouri, the son of a caustic, hard-driving father, he was conditioned to suppress his artistic pursuits and physical desires, notions that didn?t align with a traditional view of masculinity. But now, in late ?80s Chicago, Isaac has finally carved out a life of his own. He is sensitive and tenderhearted and has built up the courage to seek out a community. Yet just as he begins to embrace who he is, two social catalysts-the AIDS crisis and Rodney King?s attack-collectively extinguish his hard-earned joy.At a therapist?s encouragement, Isaac begins to write down his story. In the process, he taps into a creative energy that will send him on a journey back to his family, his ancestral home in Arkansas and the inherited trauma of the nation?s dark past. But a surprise discovery will either unlock the truths he?s seeking or threaten to derail the life he?s fought so hard to claim.Poignant, sweeping and luminously told, Isaac's Song is a return to the beloved characters of Don?t Cry for Me and a high-water mark in the career of an award-winning author.\u003c\/p\u003e\n        \u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n        ","brand":"Miakarts Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49677368459504,"sku":"NEW133509041X","price":24.71,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/ethereallybeautiful.com\/products\/isaacs-song-a-heartfelt-coming-of-age-novel-of-family-and","provider":"Ethereally Beautiful","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
