Garmai Falika, a Black girl growing up in the '50s South. Her Eden is disrupted by family tensions, murder, incest, and racism. Like Ishmael, Huck, and other American icons, Garmai's struggles are classic. This uniquely female vision charts a child's growth from lethal innocence through secret desires, divided loyalties, and role confusion.
Hear Garmai's story and learn about personal and social dilemmas typical of America at mid-century.
Suffocating in their narrow space, Garmai and her mother reach extremes to find a solution. Their story will make you cry; it will make you cheer. For them and for yourself.
