Book Reviews of Brass Bed and Other Stories (English and English Edition)
Book Review: A master story teller...Kudos to Ms. Cleage.
Summary: 4 Stars
Pearl Cleage is a master story teller as is evident in this collection of short stories. She weaves interesting tales that masterfully explore the often explored topic of racism. Though an often explored topic, Ms. Cleage handles it with expertise that lends itself to a wonderful product. We see deep into her characters and how their personal self images interweave with interactions with the outside world to form various "shades" of racism and self perception.
This is a short collection...but oh so sweet.
