Recenzii

"West writes like a social historian,  capturing significant moments that seem to alter  lives forever or change nothing at  all."--Los Angeles  Times

"Unforced perfection . . . beautifully cadenced.  West has shown the power of what is left  unspoken."--Chicago  Tribune

"Dorothy West is an epic  storyteller."--Quarterly Black Review of Books
