Is it ever too late to overcome the adversities of our past?

Set in the South during the 60s and 70s, The Art of Straightening Nails follows Robert Rhodes as he reminisces about his life. His childhood had not been a pleasant, innocent experience. Aside from the poverty and the endless disappointment his family endured, the boy had also known personal challenges of neglect and abuse.

After realizing the source of his lifelong pain, he confronts his past in a dramatic climax to the story. Not until Robert deals with his past is he able to be emancipated from it. His new freedom allows him to find the love and success he had always sought.
