Walking Through Walls

COMING LATE SPRING 2025

WALKING THROUGH WALLS is a coming of age novel chronicling the harrowing high school urban escapades of Archimedes T’Leal Diggs. Set in Detroit’s inner city during the socially turbulent years of 1963 to 1967, with the backdrop of an escalating war and race riots exploding across the nation, a backyard reenactment of the Eichmann execution gone awry induces the agnostic twelve-year old to pledge his life to God. Searching for a loophole, it strikes the streetwise con artist that a religious education just might provide the escape from the ghetto violence of the Lower East Side. Had he realized the daily torture tests involved, he certainly would have decided to hang.
