内容简介：
Wilmer Hall is written from the perspective of a boy who grew up from the age of nine to seventeen in a south Alabama orphanage during the 1950s. Adventure, friendship, humor, suspense, young love, tragedy and, eventually, victory are on the route for young Randy's life. This story could be the life of almost any reader who grew to adulthood during the 1950s. Wilmer Hall depicts the choices and decisions of a boy without the guidance of parents and a normal community. Randy and his older brother are abandoned at the orphanage and separated from one another. Randy must make life-altering decisions based on his own thoughts and judgments. Despite defeats and errors, Randy confronts the ghosts in his life and achieves a sense of victory. He returns, not once but twice, to the orphanage, which seems to be the last place he would ever visit again.
