Description

"Nicknamed "Wooden Washington" by his students, he has spent his career - and his life - at Chelsea trying not to appear too "racial": He is reserved, controlled, seemingly content with his isolated life." "Into his classroom one autumn morning steps Rashid Bryson, a promising African-American student from New York City. He sees in Washington a potential ally, a man who is sure to understand the younger man's need to find his bearings in this citadel of the white status quo. But to Bryson's surprise and dismay, Washington responds unexpectedly to him. It is up to Jana Hansen, herself a newcomer to Chelsea, to come to Bryson's aid."--Publisher (barnesandnoble.com)
