Can anyone suggest me a book similar to the television show Rectify?
What I’m specifically interested in:
Character-driven; character development
Small Southern USA town
Philosophical/reflective
Main character struggling to make sense of their life/circumstances.
Family or relationship (not romantic) dynamics
Great imagery and prose
Does not necessarily need to contain the falsely accused/incarcerated elements, but if there are secrets or a mystery, that’s an added bonus.
Thank you!

Sounds like you’d probably like *To Kill a Mockingbird* if you’ve never read it. A classic for a reason!
You might also like *East of Eden* by Steinbeck, though that takes place in California, not the South
*The Heart is a Lonely Hunter* by Carson McCullers
