Light Bread, a first novel by Cordell Adams, weaves a lovely story around the tumultuous 1960s in his creation of Veola Cook--a brave, Black earth mother of wisdom, warmth and wit. But Veola has the strength of goodness and godliness to offer love and comfort to those in need, regardless of the danger she faces, regardless of the unrest in America...and regardless of the color of the many who depend on her. --Billie Letts, Where the Heart Is (an Oprah Book Club selection), and MADE IN THE USA We all know her. That go-to person for all our troubles. And in his debut novel, Light Bread, Cordell Adams gives readers that person in the form of Veola Cook, who just about everyone in Parkerville, Texas, comes to count on when they need a little homespun wisdom and propping up. Adams has created a warm, caring, colorful and insightful character who will be a delight for readers. A woman with the wisdom to avoid trouble and the insight to handle it, if it rears its ugly head. --Robert Greer, author of seven novels in the CJ Floyd mystery series (the latest two, The Mongoose Deception and Blackbird, Farewell), two medical thrillers, and a short story collection.
