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 Lettres
