The Blind Brother

This novel tells the story of two brothers who work in a Pennsylvania coal mine in the early 20th century. One of the brothers is blind, and the other must care for him while also trying to maintain their family's livelihood. The novel explores themes of family, disability, and social justice. Homer Greene's firsthand experience working in the coal mines lends credibility to the story's depiction of working-class life.
