Book summary

The daughter of African-American novelist Alice Walker and Jewish activist Mel Leventhal, this memoirist shares her complicated experiences as a biracial child growing up in the waning days of the civil rights movement.

Media Reviews


"Walker's highly readable debut serves as a condemnation not of a society unable to deal with a biracial child but of her parents who did not heed her cries for help."

   -- Entertainment Weekly

Publisher Notes


In a memoir about the power of race to shape one's personal identity, the daughter of a Jewish father and African-American mother recalls her confusing but ultimately rewarding life lived between two conflicting ethnic identities. Reprint.
