Title: marvelous journey into lives of blacks in antebellum South
Review: This beautifully crafted novel transports the reader to an antebellum South populated with free blacks, free black slave owners, slaves, former slaves, white slave owners, and interacial relationships (sexual and social) between those of various social status. Jones creates a world that blurs the simplistic picture of slavery often painted of this era. Highly recommended for anyone who likes historical fiction, but don't expect a romanticized version of this period of history. Also recommended, Jones's Aunt Hagars Children.
