Bebe Moore Campbell

Set against the smoking embers of post-riot Los Angeles, Brothers and Sisters confirms Bebe Moore Campbell's reputation for fiction that "cuts close to the bone of real life" (Atlanta Journal). Esther Jackson is a bank manager who's worked hard to earn her success, and equally hard to keep her passions in check. Sensitive to injustice, but struggling against hostility and mistrust, she forms a tentative friendship with Mallory Post, a white coworker who seems sometimes to live in a different -- and unreachable -- world. But when an attractive black man is hired as a senior vice president at the bank, with troubling and unexpected consequences for both of these women, Esther is forced to question her deepest loyalties and desires -- and what really makes us "brothers and sisters".

THE WASHINGTON POST BOOK WORLD Chicago-born Amrstrong Tood is fifteen, black, and unused to the ways of the segregated Deep South, when his mother sends him to spend the summer with relatives in rural Mississippi. For speaking a few innocuous words in French to a white woman, Armstrong is killed. And the precariously balanced world and its determined people--white and black--are changed, then and forever, by the horror of poverty, the legacy of justice, and the singular gift of love's power to heal.
