The Chair: Volume II

A grand epic saga by Robert McKenzie,

The Chair

spans centuries, touching the lives of 22 related mothers and daughters, their stories witnessed by a simple pine chair. Resolute, strong, loving, and fiercely protective, these women must strive to pass their values to new generations in a world of racism and s****m, politics, scandal, fashion—even the rise and dominance of baseball. They live in privilege and poverty, with faith and despair, relishing every moment of love even as they suffer abiding grief.

Volume I: Lightning, Thunder, & Glory

spans the 1600s through WWI, while

Volume II: Faith, Hope, & Love

follows these women’s descendants into modern times and beyond. An authentic and uniquely American novel,

The Chair

conjures the very hallmarks of history, yet navigates the simple intimacy of everyday lives to reveal who and why we are. Everybody sits, so find your own seat and discover

The Chair.
