Abstract | Considers Virginia Hamilton's "Plain City" and Walter Dean Myers'"Somewhere in the Darkness." Compares the similarities and differences in the authors and the books and considers many aspects of "coming of age." Notes that when the fathers in these stories reappear, the simple fact of their presence is a catalyst for the protagonist's self understanding. (SG) |
