His cousin, the Reverend James Greene, tries to help Horace but finds he is no more prepared than the older generation to save Horace's soul or his life. And as he views the aftermath of Horace's horrible night, he is left with only questions and the passing of generations. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn his powerful first novel, Randall Kenan--recipient of the Prix de Rome, the Whiting Award, and other accolades--shows us the effects of a proud family heritage on a generation that must confront a world far removed from anything they are prepared for. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eTold in a montage of voices and memories, \u003ci\u003eA Visitation of the Spirits \u003c\/i\u003eshows just how richly populated a family's present is with the spirits of the past and the future.\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Vintage","offers":[{"title":"Visitation of Spirits | Randall Kenan | Paperback | 9780375703973 | Used: Very Good | Fiction 1731042 (temp: 1)","offer_id":48167855751320,"sku":"1731042","price":7.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/61G-04-jeAL.jpg?v=1771956823","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/visitation-of-spirits","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
