| Publisher Description: "A Collection Of Novelettes: When Black Women Were The Prize, The Broach and Deepest Darkest Secret" offer a controversial perspective on race relations in Louisiana. The stories span three centuries and offer a glimpse into the lives of both black and white people in Louisiana. Whether it's the free people of color who lived in New Orleans during slavery or a white businessman who nearly destroys his life when he commits a social taboo, he has an affair with a black woman in the segregated south or a young star who decides to pass for white and pays a tragic price. "The Cane River" and "The Imitation Of Life" are novels with similar themes. |
