Beschreibung
Two black families from different social classes are joined together by an unexpected teen pregnancy and the child that it produces. Moving forward and backward in time, with the power of poetry and the emotional richness of a narrative ten times its length, Jacqueline Woodson's extraordinary new novel uncovers the role that history and community have played in the experiences, decisions, and relationships of these families, and the life of this child. From the author of "Another Brooklyn" and "Brown Girl Dreaming".
