Foster, Sharon Ewell Passing by Samaria (Paperback)

Set in 1919 Mississippi, Passing by Samaria follows Alena, a young African American woman whose life is upended after the lynching of a schoolmate.

Amidst the backdrop of the Red Summer, Alena meets James, a principled journalist, and Pearl, a charming yet enigmatic conductor. Sharon Ewell Foster's debut novel weaves a poignant tale of faith, identity, and the pursuit of justice in a divided America.
