Descrizione libro Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. "Potent . . . Unforgettable."--Bharati Mukherjee The New York Times Book Review"A REMARKABLE ACHIEVEMENT . . . . While Sweet Summer is infused with experiences unique to African-American culture, it speaks to the universals of human experience."--The Philadelphia InquirerWritten with the narrative force of fiction and the lyrical motion of poetry, SWEET SUMMER is Bebe Moore Campbell's elegy to her extraordinary father. Though she lived with her devoted mother and grandmother in the North most of the year, Campbell spent the summers with her father in the South--a man of gargantuan appetites and boundless exuberance. To his daughter, he was a magical presence.A bittersweet evocation of a divided childhood with its family secrets, surprising discoveries, loneliness, and love, SWEET SUMMER also recalls living on the cusp of the social revolution of the 1960s. Most of all, it is an achingly honest and beautiful reminder of the universal challenge of growing up and facing one's parents as an adult."Touching. . . With this candid account and loving tribute to a special man, Campbell breaks through all the stereotypes about black family life." --New York Daily News This acclaimed memoir by the author of "Brothers and Sisters" and "Singing in the Comeback Choir" recalls the sweet summers spent with her father, an extraordinary man of dreams and inspiration, in the American South of the 1960s. "Fearlessly unveils the pain of loss and the ecstasy of love".--Maya Angelou. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
