Darker Than a Thousand Midnights

>Darker Than A Thousand Midnights is a blunt and honest account of a Southern black woman’s life in the days just before the Civil Rights movement, and of her sojourn to the north to find work. This is also the story of her children, who grew up in the era where hope for a better life was not a hollow wish. - [publisher](http://www.buybooksontheweb.com/product.aspx?ISBN=0-7414-0893-7)
