Book Club | Paule Marshall's Brown Girl, Brownstones

Wednesday, July 25, 2018, 5:30 pm

Free

Set in Brooklyn during the Depression and World War II, "Brown Girl, Brownstones" is the enduring story of a most extraordinary young woman. Selina Boyce, the daughter of Barbadian immigrants, is caught between the struggles of her hard-working, ambitious mother, who wants to buy a house and educate her daughters, and her father, who longs to return to the land in Barbados. Selina seeks to define her own identity and values as she struggles to surmount the racism and poverty that surround her.

Paule Marshall is an American author, best known for her 1959 novel Brown Girl, Brownstones. In 1992, at the age of 63, Marshall was awarded a Macarthur Fellowship Grant. In 2010, she won a Lifetime Achievement Award from the Anisfield-Wolf Book Awards
