The African American novelist looks back at her day-to-day life raising her children in a racially segregated America.
First published in 1997, No Crystal Stair is an absorbing story of Montreal in the 1940s. Raising her three daughters alone, Marion discovers she can only find gainful employment if she passes as white.

Read together these writers provide new entry poi...
