Description:
Struggling architect Ethan Cotham understands Ben Jonson’s observation, “Art hath an enemy called Ignorance.” Cotham may have just won a prestigious competition to design the new Center for Southern Culture on the banks of the Mississippi River, but now his unconventional ideas must survive attack by the conservative Memphis Board of Design Review. Written with a solid ring of authenticity, the story builds to a suspenseful and tragic climax amidst its setting in Memphis and Mississippi, a region peopled by colorful characters where the past is inevitably in conflict with the present.
