Annotation | Troy Maxson, a black American, struggles to come to terms with his past and the changing world around him. The son of a hard-bitten, sharecropper father, from whom he learned violence and responsibility, Troy works as a trash hauler to support his wife, Rose, and his seventeen-year-old son, Cory. He has survived a failed attempt to make it in the world of big-league baseball, and fifteen years in prison, but his own lust ultimately betrays him. |
