The year is 1963 in Detroit. Denise Palms learns that only
by speaking the Kings English will
she ever be heard, and soon her hungry intellect competes with her increasing
responsibilities at home. Denise watches the limits of her future lived out in
her brothers. As her voice becomes vibrant and strong, Denise questions the
legacies of her family and culture and determines-for the first time-her own
course for the future.
"Truly extraordinary." Toni Morrison.
