The Whisper of the River

By Ferrol Sams

The second in the trilogy, this book covers college years for young Porter Osborne, Jr. Race, religion and sex are the major themes, while WWII looms in the background. Pranks are plentiful (at times very immature) and humor is widespread, with occasional moments of tearing up. Second read was a bit more attentive than first, since I didn't have to rush through it as before, but impressions remained quite the same, as far as I can tell. [528pp.]
