About this month's title:

An African American woman recalls the anguish of her childhood in Arkansas and her adolescence in northern slums in the 1930's and 1940's. A coming-of-age story that illustrates how strength of character and a love of literature can help overcome racism and trauma. 

A limited number of physical copies of the selected title are available in advance at the Belt Branch for check out.

This program is for adults 18+.
