”A compelling and unsentimental account” The Times
Set among the lush, swampy plantations of deepest Louisiana, Cane River follows the lives of four generations of women from the time of slavery in the early 1800s, sweeping through the American Civil War and into the pre-civil rights South.
From down-trodden, philosophical Suzette, who came into womanhood as a slave, to educated, pale-skinned Emily, whose high ambitions born in freedom became her downfall, these remarkable women's struggles reflect the tragedy of slavery and, ultimately, the triumph of the human spirit.
This deeply personal saga is the result of many years of exhaustive research into the author's own family story. Evocative, powerful and absolutely unforgettable, Cane River introduces a brilliant new voice into the ranks of bestselling American literature.
