Book summary


This saga of four generations of strong African-American women begins in 1834 on a Louisiana plantation and ends a hundred years later. The author was a successful executive who quit her job to research the history of her own family--which she has incorporated into this stirring tale.


Media reviews


"An accomplished first novel....Tademy's people are distinctive personalities, enough so to compensate for the slackening of narrative energy as the story moves into the 1930s. The result is a richly textured family saga that resonates with intelligence and empathy."
