It's an interesting read for me as a Black man, because I know that the hair, self-love, and self-identity journeys differ based on societal expectations, gender roles, and long-held double standards, and it was interesting to get a different perspective on the topic. Thanks Nicole, and I look forward to giving a better review when I finish the book.
I picked up a copy of the book this weekend, and thus far it's an excellent read. One of the thing I like most so far about the short stories is the way in which the author takes issues facing Black women and the community at large and personifies them, giving them a face, personality, and life of their own. The stories I've read always have a way of opening up the floor for discussion after opening the reader up for introspection and personal study
@globalblend Thanks! The digital version is available for download on Smashwords. The actress who played the housekeeper is Melanna Gray, and you can find her on Facebook.
do you deliver in Europe? Do you have booksellers there?

Best of luck on your tour! The hair thing -- went through that same mess 35 years ago -- when will it end?
