Christine Pride; Jo Piazza

Recenzje

"The work of Jo Piazza and Christine Pride sits squarely at the tender intersection of race, class, and ethics-wrapped in beautiful prose and a killer plot that keeps you turning the pages. Before you begin You Were Always Mine, ask yourself why you often see white foster parents with Black kids...but rarely the other way around. What makes a family? Who has the right to raise a child? Does race matter more than love or security? And perhaps most important of all-why don't we feel comfortable asking these questions? This novel will spark one of many conversations America should be having." -JODI PICOULT, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Mad Honey
