During the Great Depression, life is hard for most. But for Ezell Jefferson Oldham, a young black man being raised by a white family in the Deep South, life is filled with constant challenges.
Whether mourning the death of his biological mother, searching for his longlost father, volunteering for the marines, or dealing with the aftermath of his time in World War II, Ezell struggles to reconcile his heritage while desperately searching for a place to belong.
Told through the words of Alva Jo, a young white woman who was fortunate enough to call Ezell “family,” this story weaves together the conflicts, triumphs, loves, and losses of A Man Named Ezell.
