Description:
Told with the irrepressible warmth and humor of a natural-born storyteller, The Seventh Child is the chronicle of a remarkable woman's life. The seventh of eight children, Freddie Mae Baxter was born in 1923 in rural South Carolina. When her father left the family, her mother had to raise the children alone, and Freddie Mae went to work -- first picking cotton, then cooking for the white families in town. At seventeen, she decided to go up North in search of new horizons and a better life.
Expand description
Now in an astonishingly original voice, Freddie Mae shares with us the wisdom of her seventy-five years, and some vivid memories: from her childhood days in the South to her life in Harlem, where she played saxophone in an all-girl band and danced at all-night hot clubs. Through good times, bad times, and the enormous changes she's lived through, Freddie Mae has remained steadfastly optimistic and emotionally generous. The Seventh Child will take place alongside our strongest memories as an unforgettable American original.
