Summary of Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry Summary of Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry Reviews for Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry An Excerpt from Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry
"The vivid story of a black family whose warm ties to each other and their land give them strength to defy rural Southern racism during the Depression. . . . Entirely through its own internal development, the novel shows the rich inner rewards of black pride, love, and independence despite the certainty of outer defeat." —Booklist (starred review)
