The Morning And The Evening by Joan Williams
A spare, compassionate portrait of a mute, intellectually disabled man in a small Southern river town whose fragile routine is shattered when the parent who protected him dies; over the course of a single day, relatives, townspeople, and authorities weigh his future, revealing a community’s mingled pity, fear, and tenderness, while the cadence of the landscape underscores themes of time, dignity, and belonging.
