"I've just read "The Boys from Biloxi" by John Grisham. Two immigrant families grow up in the town in Mississippi and take different routes - one becoming first a teacher and then a lawyer and then on from there, and the other opening bars and clubs and taking a decidedly different route, culminating in a court battle between the two. A good book, I always enjoy Grisham stuff."
Two immigrant families grow up in Biloxi, Mississippi, and follow sharply different paths. One family member advances from teacher to lawyer, reflecting upward mobility, education, and legal ambition. The other family builds a livelihood through bars and clubs, creating a nightlife-focused business and a rougher social standing. Competing ambitions, values, and economic strategies generate escalating tensions that culminate in a courtroom battle. The conflict forces both families and the broader community to confront issues of class, identity, morality, and the personal costs of different routes to success.
