About The Book

We first meet Susan Cushmans characters John and Mary Margaret in her short story collection Friends of the Library. In her second novel and seventh book Cushman fleshes out their stories covering over fifty years of their lives in Mississippi and Memphis against the backdrop of the civil rights movement and continuing through current-day events.John and Mary Margaret is an insiders look into the White-privilege bubble of a young girl growing up in Jackson Mississippi and participating in sorority life on the Ole Miss campus in the late 1960s. But its also a candid portrayal of a young Black boy from Memphis who follows his dream to study law at the predominately White university. What happens when their shared love for literature blossoms into an ill-fated romance? Set squarely in the center of decades of historical events in Mississippi and Memphis here their story brings those events to life.
