The Shotgun House and Other Stories: A Memoir (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798540940986)

The Shotgun House and Other Stories is a coming-of-age kaleidoscope of memories, quiet dramas of home, family, friends and awareness, as they all played out in that white frame house. The years 1938 through 1952 covered the first fourteen years of my life. During this time, my family, of modest means, lavished me with love and security to explore, create, take risks and sometimes suffer consequences. I basked in Mama's unconditional love and emulated Daddy's strong male role. But above all I enjoyed the freedom to think for myself and make my own decisions - but all haunted by conflicts of race, class, religion, and personality.
