This book is interesting as it was written in 1937 and was one of the first books written by an African American portraying African American life. It's characters move the action and they are not victims - but capable of creating the lives they want. The written speech of the characters make it a little difficult to read, but you care about the characters and what happens to them. A strong, female lead character makes the book worthwhile.
