About this listen

A LOVE LETTER TO THE AMERICAN SOUTH

A STORY OF RESILIENCE, HOPE, AND FAMILY—BOTH LOST AND FOUND

It's 1957, and tobacco is king. Wealthy landowner Gordon Talmadge enjoys the lavish lifestyle he inherited but doesn't like getting his hands dirty; he leaves that to the two sharecroppers—one white, one Black—who farm his tobacco but have bigger dreams for their own children. While Gordon takes no interest in the lives of his tenant farmers, a brutal attack between his son and the sharecropper children sets off a chain of events that leaves no one unscathed. Over the span of a decade, Gordon struggles to hold on to his family's legacy as the old order makes way for a New South.

A sweeping drama that follows three unforgettable families navigating the changing culture of North Carolina at a pivotal moment in history, listeners have been raving that Talmadge Farm is one they cannot put down. Perfect for fans of Wiley Cash and Amor Towles.
