This was one of the most difficult books I have read recently and also one of the best. With lyrical prose and incredible insight the authors links the ghosts of our racist past with the desperation of a present day dysfunctional family, literal ghosts. She touches on the power of the sibling bond, the unconditional love grandparents have for their grandchildren, the mother- daughter bond, an imperfect mother who can't put her children's need above her own, and a interracial marriage in the south, and evil of the jim crow south. I can't praise this book enough
