One of the most significant contributions to early Black literature. -Jane Campbell, Belle Lettres

"A moving rite of passage story, the 'ordeal of suffering' of an enlightened black girl growing up. . . . A superior book." -Doris Grumbach, National Public Radio
"In an era full of extraordinary black women, Frances Watkins Harper . . . was one of the most extraordinary among them.
