From the 1930s through the race riots of 1967, the members of the Wendall family, living in inner-city Detroit, struggle to understand the obscure forces constantly tearing at their lives and happiness. Winner of the National Book Award.
'When Miss Oates' potent, lifegripping imagination and her skill at narrative are conjoined, as they are pre-eminently in THEM, she is a prodigious writer.' -The Nation
