The Woodbine Chronicles: A Neighborhood Love Story

by Suzanne O Stelling

Join author Suzanne Stelling as she details the incomparable experience of leaving her white, wealthy, safe, lovely suburban property to intentionally become a minority in urban Knoxville, Tennessee. Walk with her through her neighborhood as she begins to fall in love with Woodbine Avenue, a complex and diverse street soon to be irreparably impacted by gentrification. Feel her bewilderment and tension as she enters a world of popping gunfire, street prostitution, and sidewalk drugs, only to find more of the love and beauty of God. Meet her beloved neighbors and housemates as they teach her lessons of life and friendship in the holy, turbulent classroom of the street.
