Synopsis
Children of Strangers is the powerful and moving story of love in a community bound by race and class. Famie is a mulatto girl, a half-breed. Her ancestors were free blacks who rivalled the white planters in wealth and culture. But on a Louisiana plantation in the 1920's, Famie is an outcast, rejected by whites because of her black ancestors, and unwilling to associate with the sharecroppers who are descendants of slaves. An illicit love affair with a white landowner leaves Famie with a son to raise. Her dream is that Joel will someday become accepted into white society. But in her struggle to transcend race and class Famie must sacrifice the last links to her past., The moving story of love in a Cane River community bound by race and class.

    The books were in very good condition and were packaged extremely well. I do not think that I have received books packaged this well before. I am quite pleased. The seller also communicated fast when I asked a question about the books. I would definitely buy from them again if they ever sell something else I want.

    great price for a well known New Mexican folk carver. Took 2 weeks to receive my purchase but it was the USPS fault. They bounced it from major city to city and the Phoenix distribution center sent it out of state twice after they received it rather than sending it to my local PO. But the wait was well worth it. Had to have the USPS track it down before receiving it. If the seller has any more carvings by New Mexican carvers at this price, I will buy again.
