Produktbeschreibung

Boy, Interrupted: A Southern Memoir of Faith, Identity, and Becoming is a powerful true story about a Black, queer boy growing up in rural Georgia-surviving poverty, shame, trauma, and heartbreak-and rising into the man he was always meant to be.

Part coming-of-age narrative, part spiritual testimony, and part exploration of identity and resilience, this memoir takes readers from the dirt roads of Upson County to college dorms in Savannah, to the classrooms and mountains where the author discovers freedom, purpose, and self-love.

Through unforgettable characters-a grandmother who was a sanctuary, a mother battling illness and addiction, a father struggling with fear, and a young boy navigating queerness in the rural South-this story unravels how one life can be interrupted again and again...yet still bloom.

With honesty, humor, cultural insight, and lyrical storytelling, the author explores themes of faith, queerness, Southern identity, grief, mental health, childhood trauma, masculinity, and generational survival.

Readers will follow a boy teased for the softness in his walk, a teen praying away the parts of himself he never chose, and a young man fighting to rebuild what the world tried to break.

But Boy, Interrupted is not just about surviving-it's about becoming.

This memoir will resonate with readers who love:

• The Glass Castle by Jeannette Walls
• Heavy by Kiese Laymon
• All Boys Aren't Blue by George M. Johnson
• Black queer memoirs, Southern stories, spiritual narratives, and emotional journeys toward healing

At its core, this is a story about resilience: how faith can evolve, how identity can expand, and how love-real love-can save you even after everything else tried to silence you.

For anyone who has ever felt different, broken, unseen, or interrupted-this memoir shows that your soul can still finish the sentence.
