A very complex book about the women who live on John R Street. It is more about the relationships between these black women and men, whether as friends, family, or lovers it is always very human and very messy.

I read it twice, while taking part in proofreading the new printing, and it has some absolutely delectable prose. There were sentences and passages I could read over and over again, just to experience the taste as they rolled off my tongue.
