The Best New Fiction winner at this year’s International Book Awards, When the Men Were Gone by Marjorie Herrera Lewis is a historical fiction novel tackling preconceived gender roles. It tells the true story of Tylene Wilson, a teacher and assistant principal in Brownwood, Texas, during World War II who volunteered to coach the Daniel Baker College football team in 1944 after their previous coach left to serve in the war.
As she prepares her boys for the games ahead, she faces extreme opposition, both on and off the field, as she fights to challenge her community’s ideas of women's role in sports.
“A beautiful story that stays in your heart long after you finish reading When The Men Were Gone. A delightful true story, well written and touching. Looking forward to reading many more books by Lewis,” says Mornings on Main author Jodi Thomas.
