The listing, The Color of Water: A black man's tribute to his white mother has ended.

Will ship Media Mail or 1st class, which ever is cheapest. I really enjoyed this book!


Synopsis:

Around the narrative of Ruth McBride Jordan (Rachel Deborah Shilsky), the daughter of an angry, failed Orthodox Jewish rabbi in the South. Her son James writes of the inner confusions he felt as a black child of a white mother and of the love and faith with which his mother surrounded their large family. The result is a powerful portrait of growing up, a meditation on race and identity, and a poignant, beautifully crafted hymn from a son to his mother.
