When 11 year old C.J. asks her grandmother, " Noni, where did I come from?" a memorable quest begins. Weaving the Journey Noni and the Great Grands is a multigenerational saga of family, culture and race that begins with Sariah, a slave in the early 1800's, and concludes with Sariah's descendants in the 21st century.
The reader meets a diverse cast of characters-black, brown, red and white-who move through a compelling landscape of space and time. This is the sympathetic and ultimately healing of the intermingling-the weaving-of a truly American family.
