Author Description

Set in 1952 Virginia and first published in 1965, “Saturday” is the powerful story of a small Virginia town that did some living, loving and dying on the sixth day of the week. Jeb Rosebrook, writing of a small Virginia town is like a modern prospector searching for gold in a work-worn claim in the Klondike but where others have found gold and lead, Rosebrook has touched the mother lode.
