Skin: short stories (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781329552753)

Skin is a coming-of-age collection by a New York writer, Racquel Goodison. It deals with Sophia, a young girl, and her life in the West Indies and the United States. Sophia is determined as child, teen, and adult to individuate herself from who her family and her society believe that she is or should be based on ethnicity, class, gender, and sexuality. In these stories, Goodison paints a complex portrait of beauty, discovery, self-love and self-acceptance. And once Sophia crosses water and land, literally, to finally cross her own internal landscape, figuratively, we all stop "running for cover".
