A Piece of Mine by J California Cooper
The extraordinary debut short story collection from the award-winning author of Family and Life is Short But Wide. In its strong folk flavor, Cooper's work reminds us of Langston Hughes and Zora Neale Hurston ... It is a delight to read. --Alice Walker, Pulitzer Prize winner and bestselling author The label 'short' story is a woefully inadequate description of these intensely, explicitly moral tales. 'Parable' is more appropriate. Cooper's stories are rich in wisdom and insight. --Belles LettresJ. California Cooper is the author of five collections of short stories, including Homemade Love, which won the 1989 American Book Award, and Some Love, Some Pain, Someday. She is also the author of fifteen plays and has been recognized as Black Playwright of the Year (1978), the James Baldwin Writing Prize (1988), and the American Librarby Association's Literary Lion Award (1988). She is a resident of Gualala, California.
