THE HARRIS FAMILY
R MJohnson
Julius Harris walked out on his family twenty-five years ago -- and not a moment goes by he doesn't regret it. Five years ago, after learning he had cancer, Julius tried to make peace with his three sons. It didn't take. Now, the disease has gone into remission. Overjoyed, Julius is grateful for this miracle, and the time it affords him to make up for his past mistakes.
It won't be easy. In Chicago, life isn't exactly simple for his three grown sons. The oldest, Austin, a successful attorney, struggles to be a good father to his children despite his ex-wife's attempts to turn them against him. Marcus, the middle son, wrestles with a fear of commitment that drives away the woman he loves. And young Caleb, just released from prison, fights to rebuild his life and win back his wife and child. The three Harris brothers have a hard enough time being there for each other -- let alone a father they haven't seen in years. Nor are they sure they even want him in their lives.
Filled with intrigue, romance, and shocking twists, The Harris Family is a deliciously gripping novel of contemporary black relationships and, ultimately, a moving testament to the power of family, love, and forgiveness.
Knowledge Book Club meets Sunday August 29th 2010 at 2:00pm, we will be discussing the book The Harris Family by R M Johnson. Please feel free to come and participate or just listen.

In our continued effort to awaken the minds of our people, Knowledge Bookstore seeks to demystify the 'scriptures' through an ongoing in-depth look into the 'King James Version' of the Bible. This will be accomplished using the aid of prolific writers and Scholars such as Dr Ben, Gerald Massey, Dr Muata Ashby, Walter McCray, John G. Jackson, Ishakamusa Barashango, J.A Rogers, Diop, Nana Darkwah and many others. In his controversial work The Africans Who Wrote The Bible, Nana Darkwah proves biblically, historically and scientifically that originally it was Africans who wrote the Bible. Darkwah states, that Black people of the Bible were not Jews and were not Hebrews. They originated from the Black tribes that were the Ancient Egyptians. Knowledge Bookstore invites you to be part of our (study/discussion) on Sunday August 8th from 11am to 1pm at The Liberation Lounge inside Knowledge Bookstore and continuing every other Sunday, for a small fee of $5.00 per session.
