How can everything that he has come to know change so instantly? How does he situate into this new world and these new people? How will Betty and Robert, his new mother and father, define those titles that should carry meanings of warmth and security for him? Will his new brother, 14-year-old Tommy, until now an only son, overcome the expected jealousies and share with the newly-arrived usurper all that has been his world alone?

The basement, the darkness, the sounds--and Uncle Adisa, who lives there. Written by Aaron Blandon See less
