JONATHAN ODELL is the author of the acclaimed novel The View from Delphi,
which deals with the struggle for equality in pre-civil rights
Mississippi, his home state. His short stories and essays have appeared
in numerous collections. He spent his business career as a leadership
coach to Fortune 500 companies and currently resides in Minnesota.
"A terrific novel that will take its place in the distinguished pantheon of Southern fiction. Like The Help, that showstopping work by Kathryn Stockett, The Healing is another Mississippi-born work of art and Odell's Polly Shine is a character for the ages."
—Pat Conroy, author of The Prince of Tides and South of Broad
