Book Description
Excerpt from Shadow In the south room, however, it was peaceful and quiet. The wind spent its strength in the north, and here one could listen to the creak of the chair as the Old nurse rocked slowly back and forth. Near her, on the bed, upon her back, was a young girl. Her curling brown hair lay a braid on either side of her delicate face. Her eyes were closed, but not in sleep, for every now and then she would move her right arm as though to draw something toward her. At length, Opening her eyes, and looking to the far corner of the room, she said: Mammy, I want it. The Old colored woman left her seat and walked to where a cradle stood. Not right now, lil' lamb.
