"A Father's Law is the novel Richard Wright, author of Black Boy and Native Son, never completed. Written during a six-week period near the end of his life, it appears in print for the first time, submitted by his daughter and literary executor, Julia, who writes:" ""It comes from his guts and ends at the hero's 'breaking point.' It explores many themes favored by my father like guilt and innocence, the difficult relationship between the generations, the difficulty of being a black policeman and father, the difficulty of being both those things and suspecting that your own son is the murderer. It intertwines astonishingly modern themes for a novel written in 1960.""--BOOK JACKET.Wright, Richard is the author of 'A Father's Law', published 2008 under ISBN 9780061349164 and ISBN 006134916X.
