The Saddest Thing I'd Ever Known

This re-imagined version of Frank Yerby's 'My Brother Went To College" reflects issues of classism through the journey of a well-established Mark, an African American man who searches for his presumably poor brother to save him from the turmoils of lower-class society. He discovers his brother is richer than he ever knew, a discovery that tears his reality asunder, as well as any conception he has had of himself. This story is a reminder of culture, and a reminder of what can become of it.
