The bride’s bones, from Charles Kiefer, is a questioning novel that discusses prejudice and old-time values. The plot unfolds in a small town created by the author, Pau d’Arco, a scenario for many of his stories. Here, the daughter of a German businessman falls in love with a black travelling salesman. Surrounded by a male-chauvinist and oppressive environment, the city and characters suffer the consequences of the stubbornness and determination of the main character, leading to a surprising conclusion.
