Starting off with a novella about the legacy of enslaved people in the United States, the compilation draws you into the minds of the characters in each story. Some are tender and loving, while others are stark and even a little bit disturbing. Regardless, the stories capture the vivid imagination and personal experiences of the author as she gives us a cross-section of life on this earth — and sometimes what might come afterwards.
