Genus Jackson was killed in Cotton County, Georgia, on a summer midnight in 1930, when the newborn twins were fast asleep. They lay head to toe in a cradle meant for one, Winnafred on one side and Wilson on the other. Only if you looked closely - and people did - could you see that the girl was pink as a piglet, and the boy was brown. At once an intimate family drama and an expansive, mesmerising epic, The Twelve-Mile Straight explores the blood, guilt and violence that lie at the heart of the American experience.
