Description

Beware the Tall Grass weaves the stories of the Sloans, a modern family grappling with their young son Charlie's troubling memories of a past life as a soldier in Vietnam, and Thomas Boone, a young man caught up in the drama of mid-sixties America who is sent to Vietnam. Eve Sloan is challenged as a mother to make sense of Charlie's increasing references to war, and her attempts to get to the bottom of Charlie's past life memories threaten her marriage, while Thomas struggles with loss and first love, before being thrust into combat and learning what matters most. Beware the Tall Grass explores the power of love and mercy with grace and artful sensitivity in a world where circumstances often occur far beyond our control.

Editorial Reviews

Louisville native Ellen Birkett Morris' debut novel Beware the Tall Grass is a fascinating tale of intertwined lives....The novel is quiet, with a measured pace and slow build that hints at an underlying tone of eeriness and dread.--Laura Younkin "CSU Press"
