Omschrijving

Still Jim follows a young boy grappling with the challenges of growing up in a changing America after his father's tragic death in a quarry accident. The story explores themes of race, immigration, and American identity as the protagonist navigates his grief and responsibilities. Determined to honor his family's legacy, the boy reflects on his father's hard labor and the struggles of his mother, while dealing with the complex dynamics between local workers and immigrants. As he contemplates a future possibly in engineering, the protagonist faces the evolving socio-economic landscape of his New England town, confronting cultural tensions and personal aspirations. His journey of growth and self-discovery unfolds as he strives to make a better life for himself, despite the hardships he faces in the wake of his father's death. The narrative delves into the emotional complexity of loss, responsibility, and the pursuit of a brighter future, while highlighting the social divisions that shape his worldview.
