Gorilla, My Love by Toni Cade Bambara

In these fifteen superb stories, written in a style at once ineffable and immediately recognizable, Toni Cade Bambara gives us compelling portraits of a wide range of unforgettable characters, from sassy children to cunning old men, in scenes shifting between uptown New York and rural North CaroLina. A young girl suffers her first betrayal. A widow flirts with an elderly blind man against the wishes of her grown-up children. A neighborhood loan shark teaches o white social worker a lesson in responsibility. And there is more. Sharing the world of Toni Cade Bambara's straight-up fiction is a stunning experience.

Toni Cade Bambara is the author of Gorilla My Love and Seabirds Are Still Alive, two short story collections, and The Salt Eaters, a book. She has also edited two collections of short stories for black people: The Black Woman and Tales and Short Stories for Black Folks. Her work has been published in a number of publications and has been translated into multiple languages. She passed away in 1995.
