Bells for Eli

by Susan Beckham Zurenda

March 2, 2020

Bells for Eli is a Coming of Age story.
Bells for Eli is a lyrical exploration of the relationship between cousins drawn together through tragedy. First cousins Ellison Winfield and Adeline Green are meant to grow up happily and innocently across the street from one another amid the supposed wholesome values of small-town Green Branch, South Carolina, in the 1960s and 70s.  
But Eli's tragic accident changes the trajectory of their lives and of those connected to them. Shunned and even tortured by his peers for his disfigurement and frailty, Eli struggles for acceptance in childhood as Delia passionately defends him...  
(Two) young people to unite to guard each other in a world where love, hope, and connectedness ultimately triumph. (publisher)
