Nine-year-olds Max Sassaport and Ruby Johnson are best friends who can't imagine a world where they aren't together. Unfortunately, no one—not their families, nor anyone else in rural Georgia in 1906—wants to see a White middle-class Jewish boy get too close to the Black daughter of a sharecropper. It's only a matter of time before fate will separate the two. And that day comes on the eve of Ruby's womanhood, when a violent act sends her running from her home to the life of a child laborer at the National Pencil Factory in Atlanta. 
 
 
 
Max moves to Atlanta a few years later, still longing for the girl he has never forgotten. He is soon taken under the wing of Harold Ross, star reporter for the Atlanta Journal. But when Max is assigned to a controversial murder case that pits the Black and Jewish communities against each other, he's unexpectedly reunited with Ruby. The bond between them is still strong, but with the trial igniting racial tension throughout Atlanta and across the nation, do Max and Ruby dare dream of a future together?

The Open Boat

Stephen Crane

A gripping testament to human endurance and the indifference of nature, The Open Boat by Stephen Crane captures the harrowing true story of survival at sea after the wreck of the steamer Commodore. Based on Crane’s own near-death experience, this masterpiece of American naturalism follows four men—the captain, the cook, the correspondent, and the oiler—as they struggle against exhaustion, hunger, and the merciless power of the ocean in a tiny dinghy adrift off the Florida coast. Through vivid imagery and piercing realism, Crane explores courage, camaraderie, and the haunting realization that nature is vast, beautiful, and utterly indifferent to man’s fate. 
Narrated with raw intensity by Mike Polischuk, this audiobook immerses listeners in the rhythm of the waves, the quiet desperation of survival, and the fragile bonds that form in the face of oblivion.
