Description:
Set in the fictional town of Rattlebone, Kansas, in the 1950s, these eleven interrelated stories reveal the emotional, financial, and social conflicts that govern the lives of the African Americans who live there. Winner of the Chicago Tribune Heartland Award.
Selected Reviews:
"[The stories] are extraordinary, and each skillful plot twist, each new, wonderful character has the effect of a sip of literary love potion. There is magic dust sprinkled over each and every page...Like Toni Morrison's 'Song of Solomon' and Gloria Naylor's 'Linden Hills', 'Rattlebone' is about an African-American community that is less concerned with the racism of the world beyond its boundaries than it is concerned with the people who are neighbors, family, and friends."
--Veronica Chambers, New York Times Book Review
