Selina Boyce is torn between the opposing aspirations of her parents: her hardworking, ambitious mother longs to buy a brownstone row house while her easygoing father prefers to dream of effortless success and his native island’s lushness.\nFeaturing a new foreword by Edwidge Danticat, this coming-of-age tale grapples with identity, sexuality, and changing values in a new country, as a young woman must reconcile tradition with potential and change.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1558614982\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: LFV.1558614982.VG\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Very Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Marshall, Paule|Danticat, Edwidge\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Book is in very good condition.
