Whether it’s a border town in Texas or an African American neighborhood in small town North Carolina, award winning author Oscar Cásares (Where We Come From) and debut novelist De’Shawn Charles Winslow (In West Mills) write about their hometowns with depth, empathy and insight.  Both novels feature a strong and complicated woman at the center of the story.  How do these authors take on something as familiar as where they come from and infuse it with a new perspective?
