Eleanor H. (PolymorphMom) reviewed on 10/11/2009 + 7 more book reviews

For those who enjoyed reading about the Dulany sisters and their fascinating lives flourishing in the Harlem Renaissance, this little volume is a bit of a disappointment. Life without Sadie is lonely for 107 year old Sarah, and it's not as interesting for the reader. This book features lovely photos of the Dulany's flower garden, with quotes, remembrances and thoughts from Sarah. It's a touching and dear book, and would be a very nice present for an elderly person. If you are looking for the groundbreaking zing and sass of negro women on their own in a White, male dominated world, this isn't the book you want. Still, if you enjoyed Having Our Say you will want to read this too.
