Beschreibung
From the revivalist tents of Alabama to a black middle-class enclave in the heart of the city, from Vietnam to a filthy bar in the ghetto, this is an extraordinary novel about the guilt, sacrifice, responsibility and heartbreak that are intrinsic parts of love. In the tradition of Toni Morrison, the stories of Hattie and her children present a snapshot of American history across eight decades.
