Zeda in the Morning is the story of a teen girl in the rural south during the 60's who is thrust into having to grow up before she is ready when her family faces tragedy and her life is turned upside down. Her journey is a touching story of love, loss, boundaries, and self discovery that help her find herself along the way. You will smell the air, hear the music, taste the earth, and have mystical encounters as mere words come to life. Finding it easy to be alone in nature and her own thoughts, Zeda experiences the turmoil of learning responsibility, and letting go. Having put the atrocities of injustice out of her awareness, she finds herself drawn to the tragedies injustice has strewn, and that 'then' is not so far away from 'now'. The author gives a picturesque glimpse of how rural life can obscure the reality of social injustice. Zeda is transformed whether she's ready or not, and the lives she touches are forever changed. Facing the darkness that surrounds her, she looks forward to morning when the sun rising again.
