"Sometimes the war created monsters out of men, and sometimes men from the monsters. Sometimes that line between the two was blurry and difficult to tell which was which, but no matter how it turned out, there was always hope."August Owens was born as the world recovered from the First World War.Labeled strange and inclined to the immoral, he suffers at the hands of vicious prejudice against the men who raised his father.By four he learned the meaning of the word abomination, and by ten he knew because of his differences, he would never have unconditional love from his mother.When things come crumbling down, August is whisked across the United States by his father, Noah, to live with his grandfathers where he can truly feel at home.
