This is a memoir or genealogical account of seven generations of women, also known as the “Women of Cane River.” There are copies of papers that document the Creole lineage, which I found out originated in France.

This Oprah’s Book Club selection not only educated, but enlightened me to some of the struggles of our ancestors. It solidified a known fact that our history is rich and full of secrets. As I was reading it, it put me in the mind of “Roots”, as told you Alex Haley and “Jubilee” by Margaret Walker.

I highly recommend this 💎💎💎💎💎 book by New York Times bestselling author Lalita Tademy.
