The Water Is Wide, by Pat Conroy (1972, USA)



Pat is a teacher grown up in South Carolina, sent teaching on Yamacraw Island: the high school here is ruled by Mrs Brown, who believes in discipline and violent methods. Guys are black people, poorly educated, knowing very few of the world. Pat, bringing new ways of teaching, starts a war against racism and bureaucracy. Deep.
