The Black Flower (Unabridged)
At 26, Bushrod Carter is already an old soldier, a veteran of all his regiment's
campaigns since Shiloh. Now, on an Indian summer afternoon in 1864, Bushrod finds
himself in the line of battle once again, on a plain below the obscure village of
Franklin, Tennessee. The dark flower of his destiny is opening in the twilight, just as it
has on other fields, and Bushrod must pass once again under its shadow if he is to
see tomorrow.In the madness and violence of a great battle and its aftermath,
Bushrod Carter tries to act his part as well as he can. He must confront his soul and
learn from his comrades and from a young girl struggling with her own harsh past.This
timeless portrait of a young man's suffering in war has already won praise for its
originality and power. The Black Flower is a story not only of war, but of men and
women seeking redemption, who are stripped of all that anchors them, and who at
last turn to honor and courage and love.
