The Online Book Tour:
LIKE TREES, WALKING
A novel by Ravi Howard

"Howard is a talent to watch, and this work introduces us to a fictional universe that we'll definitely want to encounter again."
-The Washington Post

"Based on the true story of one of the last recorded lynchings in the U.S., Howard's debut novel offers a subtle and stirring look at the complexities of racial hatred and family obligations."
-Booklist

"Howard uses the facts of the case to hit home the novel's premise: that even with justice, there are some stains that will never be erased by time."
-Publisher's Weekly
