About this title: Just after the Civil War, Augustus Fitzwilliam heads home to New York along with a former slave named Isaac, and en route the two fall in love. But when Isaac has qualms about their "sinful" relationship, they split up. As "Dr. August," Fitzwilliam becomes successful and rich holding séances for war widows, and hires Isaac as his manager. They take the act to Europe, where Isaac marries a white woman, has children, disappears--and Fitzwilliam and Isaac's widow combine forces to bring up the kids. A 2001 nominee for a Lambda Literary Award.
