1. The Water Is Wide by Pat Conroy
"The Water Is Wide" is a memoir that details the author's experiences as a young, idealistic teacher on Yamacraw Island, a predominantly Black community off the coast of South Carolina. He is shocked by the lack of resources and the poor educational standards of the school, and he embarks on a mission to provide the children with a proper education. However, his unconventional teaching methods and attempts to introduce the children to the wider world are met with resistance from the school's administration and the island's isolationist attitudes.
