Critic, essayist, and anthologist Mary Helen Washington has chosen as the theme of her newest collection "the family as a living mystery." She selected nineteen stories and twelve poems by some of this century's leading black authors that oblige the reader to observe the complexities of the family in new and provocative ways.
This book was wonderful. Excellent collection of stories from strong and creative writers. The stories truly capture the essence of black life and showcase the ins and outs of what family living is really like. It was a must have for me. I bought it and added it to my collection.
This book is 1 of a kind and Washington helped make it that.
