Story
With over $500 million a year in sales, the Bassett Furniture Company was once the world's biggest wood furniture manufacturer. But beginning in the 1980s, the Bassett company suffered from an influx of cheap Chinese furniture as the first waves of Asian competition hit, and ultimately was forced to send its production offshore to Asia. Only one man fought back. That man is John Bassett III, a descendant of the Bassetts who is now chairman of Vaughan-Bassett Furniture Co, which employs more than 700 Virginians and has sales of over $90 million.

In this extraordinary work, Beth Macy takes us into the epicenter of a national drama that has unfolded over two decades. From the labs and marketing departments of big pharma to local doctor's offices; wealthy suburbs to distressed small communities in Central Appalachia; from distant cities to once-idyllic farm towns; the spread of opioid addiction follows a tortuous trajectory that illustrates how this crisis has persisted for so long and become so firmly entrenched.

Story
Equal parts crime thriller, medical detective story, and business exposé, Pain Killer takes a hard-hitting look at how a powerful drug touted as the salvation for millions triggered a national tragedy. At its inception, the legal narcotic OxyContin was seen as a pharmaceutical dream, a "wonder" drug that would herald a sea change in medical care while reaping vast profits for its maker. It did do that; but it also unleashed a public health crisis that cut a swath of despair and crime through unsuspecting small towns, suburbs, and cities across the country.

At the height of World War II, Oak Ridge, Tennessee, was home to 75,000 residents, consuming more electricity than New York City. But to most of the world, the town did not exist. Thousands of civilians - many of them young women from small towns across the South - were recruited to this secret city, enticed by solid wages and the promise of war-ending work. Kept very much in the dark, few would ever guess the true nature of the tasks they performed each day in the hulking factories in the middle of the Appalachian Mountains.

The opioid epidemic has been described as "one of the greatest mistakes of modern medicine." But calling it a mistake is a generous rewriting of the history of greed, corruption, and indifference that pushed the US into consuming more than 80 percent of the world's opioid painkillers. Journeying through lives and communities wrecked by the epidemic, Chris McGreal reveals not only how Big Pharma hooked Americans on powerfully addictive drugs but the corrupting of medicine and public institutions that let the opioid makers get away with it.

Publisher's Summary
The true story of two African American brothers who were kidnapped and displayed as circus freaks, and whose mother endured a 28-year struggle to get them back.
The year was 1899, and the place a sweltering tobacco farm in the Jim Crow South town of Truevine, Virginia. George and Willie Muse were two little boys born to a sharecropper family. One day a white man offered them a piece of candy, setting off events that would take them around the world and change their lives forever.
Captured into the circus, the Muse brothers performed for royalty at Buckingham Palace and headlined over a dozen sold-out shows at New York's Madison Square Garden. They were global superstars in a pre-broadcast era. But the very root of their success was in the color of their skin and in the outrageous caricatures they were forced to assume: supposed cannibals, sheep-headed freaks, even "ambassadors from Mars". Back home their mother never accepted that they were gone and spent 28 years trying to get them back.
Through hundreds of interviews and decades of research, Beth Macy expertly explores a central and difficult question: Where were the brothers better off? On the world stage as stars or in poverty at home? Truevine is a compelling narrative rich in historical detail and rife with implications to race relations today.

This is not a simple narrative
Before I purchased Truevine I read a few of the reviews of the book- all of them negative, blasting the book as boring. I have listened to other books by Beth Macy, specifically her books on the opioid crisis and found them to be excellent. I decided to give the book a try anyway.
I instantly understood why the other readers found the book boring. It is about managing expectations. If you want a simple mindless novel you can listen to while doing chores, then this book is not for you. If you want a simple account of two boys who were stolen by the circus, then this book is probably not for you. If you want an insightful look at the Jim Crow era in Virginia and how it contributed to a kind of forced labor then this is the book for you.
This book presents an excellent look at the lives of African Americans in Virginia during the 20's and 30's. It tells the story of the two Muse brother in context to racial discrimination and Jim Crow laws in Virginia. This book an excellent work of research presenting a documentary of the times.
I found Truevine to be very timely given the recent Black Lives Matters protests. I found it did an excellent job of putting in context or perspective the choices that were available for African Americans at the time and why their lives often followed the kind of paths they did. I could see how what happened back then still influences issues of discrimination and race today, although Beth Macy did not specifically speak to those issues.
It can be difficult to listen to a book that includes a great deal of data if you are also doing chores. I found I had to just sit and listen in order to be able to fully concentrate on what was being said. It is that kind of book. And while I found the reader competent, I could not help but wonder if another reader might have been able to breath more life into the the text.
If you are interested in a Black Lives Matter type book, then this is an excellent choice. I am thinking of buying a hard copy because there are sections I would like to refer back to.

Fascinating story hidden in tedium
I love the story of this book and have a deep admiration for the work and years it must have taken to dig out the details of what happened to the Muse brothers. Given that the story begins in the early 1900's, that was a daunting task. My problem with the book is the amount of other information and tedious detail added. The brother's story alone wasn't enough for a book so there's every detail about circus life, the KKK of Roanoke, sharecropper life, the railroad, you name it.
I'm glad I read it because it's a bit of history about the area where I grew up that I didn't know, but I think I would have preferred a magazine article to the rehashing of the racial history, railroad history and development history of the area. In the end I'm not really sure what her underlying objective was in writing the book. Was it to tell the Muse brother's story and everything else was filler or was it a racial history with the Muse brothers as exhibit A. Either way, it was kind of a slog to get through.

Cashing In: There's One Born Every Minute
This is how long it took me to put away my Christmas decorations, 11 hrs. but on 2x speed. Why do I mention that mundane fact? Because I had no knowledge of George and Willie Muse prior to reading this book and picked this title based on the praise from publishers as well as the high ratings here, and I was so preoccupied with my task that I endured more than enjoyed the time spent with this story. That is not to say I wasn't impressed with the author and her facts, but Macy's talent and research was a volume of impressive local stories and research more worthy of a conference of likewise minded reporters, or George and Willie enthusiasts. I felt at times like a deer in the headlights, caught in an outpouring of information intended for a specific target group. What kept me engaged in this book (besides my wrapping and boxing) about a subject I had no desire to delve into was the underlying social questions. The author is careful not to steer your thinking in any direction, and objective enough to offer the reader a wider look at possibilities. The period of time (1899/Jim Crow South) was already a socially taut timeline and -- worth mentioning, prior to the Disability Rights Movement. Enter the most popular entertainment of the era: for one thin dime, the spectacle of the Circus and the freak sideshows.
The multiple dilemmas were more interesting to me than the maze of trails Macy sleuthed down to uncover the *facts*. Imagine the difficulties a young African American mother faced hoping to provide a future for her two albino African-American sons, a sharecropper and daughter of slaves herself. I did, with the solid possibilities Macy provided. I even caught myself paying less attention to those delicate ornaments while I listened more closely. Weirdly fascinating to me at times though ultimately, I was not the specific target group to view this as the greatest show on earth. I recommend to that specific target group, and Roanoke locals interested in the history of the area.

An Allegory of Strength and Perseverance
The narrator and author has taken such precious time and care to curate the history of the brothers and their incredible mother Harriet, while offering an enriching dive into the history of post-slavery America and its pervasive racism, systemic injustice, media manipulation, and the trudge through time as women like Harriet and Nancy fight for equality in their corner of the world. This publication would do a great service if it was ever incorporated into required reading for older aged school children due to the diversity of real figures- all given their contextual background and perspectives, the historical accuracy of information not traditionally taught, the experience of the authors decades long journey- juxtaposing herself with the words of her interviewees- all provide deep insight into critical issues for our society.

The Circus, Kidnapping and the Jim Crow South!
Man's inhumanity to man never ceases to amaze! Put together the violent, ferocious and uncaring Jim Crow South with those
people wanting to make a buck on the backs of the weaker and you have a wonderful log and accounting of what happened to these black albino twins.
Definitely a s story that needed be told!
