Four Stories I Am Finally Old Enough to Tell

  • 5.0 (1 rating) ·

Now that she has outlived those who might have objected to her telling four family secrets, Ellen Douglas does just that. A novelist revered for her storytelling, here she crosses over into the mirror world of historical fact to tell four stories in which she seeks the truth - about herself, about her white Mississippi forebears, about their relationships to black Mississippians, and ultimately, about their guilt as murderers of helpless slaves.
