Marianne Pettigrwe | 1 comments HELP, PLEASE. I am trying to find the name of a book........................... that I read as a teen/young adult—so mid/late 70s, early 80s. It was about a young black man who was raised by his grandfather/grandmother in the Deep South. He goes to law school and meets/falls in love with another law student—a white female—and the dilemmas the relationship causes. How do I go about finding the title of the book/author name?

You may be unaware that What's the Name of That Book??? has changed to secret so it can only be accessed by those who are already members of What's the Name of That Book??? group.

Oh, rats—you're right, I had no idea! Is there then no way to recommend it to people?

"...Is there then no way to recommend it to people?"


As long as it remains secret no one not already in group can access it.
Some still in the group have suggested to the What's... group mods that they change from secret to private but so far that hasn't happened.
