Description
In antebellum Virginia, a young girl's world is shaped by the complex bond she shares with her enslaved wet nurse, Mattie. Raised between the privileged life of her plantation-owning family and the profound influence of Mattie's love and faith, she navigates a childhood marked by stark contrasts. As she matures, the girl grapples with the societal constraints placed upon her and the horrifying realities of slavery, forcing her to confront difficult truths. This evocative novel explores themes of love, loss, and the courage required to challenge injustice, set against the backdrop of a deeply troubled era.
