 | Dark Sun Rises by Denise Williamson
Joseph Whitsun is the favored manservant at Delora Plantation in the antebellum Charleston of 1834, but he finds his life changed forever when it is discovered that he can read. Perceived by the master`s son as a threat to the stability of the plantation, Joseph would surely have been killed but for the intervention and presence of the elderly master. Even so, he is forced to endure humiliation and abuse as a plantation field hand. It is Joseph`s courageous response to such cruelty that draws Rosa, one of the plantation housemaids, to love him. A powerful story of the amazing transformation that patient endurance worked in the lives of both slaves and masters who came to accept servanthood to God as the mark of obedience to Christ.
