About this listen

FROM THE MILLION-COPY BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF THE HEAVEN & EARTH GROCERY STORE

'A complex, ever-tightening, increasingly suspenseful web'
Washington Post

'Gripping'
New York Times

In the days before the Civil War, an enslaved woman named Liz Spocott escapes from her captors into the labyrinthine swamps of Maryland's eastern shore, setting loose a drama of violence and hope among slave catchers, plantation owners, watermen, runaway slaves and free blacks.

Liz is near death, wracked by disturbing visions of the future, and armed with 'the Code' - a fiercely guarded cryptic means of communication for slaves on the run.

Filled with rich, true details, Song Yet Sung is a story of tragic triumph, dreams of tomorrow and unexpected kindness, from the National Book Award-winning novelist James McBride.
