The Heaven & Earth Grocery Store by James McBride

Synopsis: Set in 1920s-30s Pottstown, Pennsylvania, James McBride’s The Heaven & Earth Grocery Store is a richly woven tale of community, solidarity and prejudice, focusing on the Jewish and Black residents of the Chicken Hill neighborhood. When a skeleton is found in 1972, the story jumps back to reveal how the residents protected a deaf Black boy from a corrupt state institution.
