In fact, it's a tall order plus a short stack. Grant, a teacher in small-town Louisiana, is asked to spend his free time on death row helping young Jefferson become a man before he's executed. Well, Shmooper, your toughest assignment has exactly nothing on the assignment given to Grant Wiggins, the protagonist of the National Book Critics Circle Award-winning novel A Lesson Before Dying. What's the toughest assignment you've been given? A huge paper on a dead poet who writes "O!" a whole bunch? A science fair project that resulted in a massive explosion of baking soda and vinegar (those stupid volcanoes)? An art project that incorporated that horrific torture device: the (shiver) combination of yarn and glue?
