In his third book, The Ghost of Roark Ridge, Rufus Franklin Stephenson looks back once again to his early years growing up in Mississippi in a large family on a sharecrop cotton farm. Through intermingled poetry and prose, he tells of a playful childhood too often colored by the burdens of economic hardship. Faced with the prospect of continuing in poverty into his adulthood, Rufus is driven west to seek his fortune, but years later, upon retirement, he and his wife Joyce are irresistibly drawn back to the lush and vibrant South. Settling on the beautiful Roark Ridge, Joyce and Rufus get the life of their dreams... and sometimes, more than they bargained for.
