George & Rue

Summary: By all accounts, the bludgeoning murder in 1949 of a taxi driver by brothers George and Rufus Hamilton was a slug-ugly" crime. George and Rue were hanged for it. Repelled and intrigued by his ancestral cousins'deeds, George Elliott Clarke uncovered a story of violence, poverty and shame -- a story that led first to the Governor General's Award-- winning Execution Poems and culminated in Clarke's brilliant and darkly comic debut novel.
