|
|
| "Columnist and performance poet asha bandele presents piercing portraits of herself, the man she loves, and a prison system designed to stifle all sensibility...mesmerizing and disconcerting, offering insights into why caged birds sing." |
| - Kirkus Reviews |
| |
|

| DAUGHTER: A Novel |
| 2003 |
| Fiction |
|
| |
|
|
| The silences that injustice feeds are so intricate and mutable that the mere possibility of expressing them is risky. Gloriously, in DAUGHTER, asha bandele speaks from this impossible place. Let her take you there. |
| - Adrian Nicole Leblanc, author of Random Family |
| |
|
| If silence is the cancer that kills our dreams, then asha bandele's daughter is surely the cure for what ails us. As real and as terrifying as the news stories we don't want to read, daughter forces us to look behind the headlines and see the human beings who live there. bandele's truth creates almost unbearable pain on the page, but her great gift is that she is able to find a path leading us out of that deadly quiet and into a song of sisterhood. |
| - Pearl Cleage, author of What Looks Like Crazy On An Ordinary Day and I Wish I Had a Red Dress |
| |
|
| A wonderful first novel about the very complex ties that bind mothers and daughters in pain, the inevitable sacrifices that redefine love, passion and commitment. asha bandele proves here that she can do it all: poetry, memoir, fiction. And much like asha's other work, Daughter will move and transform you. |
| - Edwidge Danticat, author of Breath, Eyes, Memory and Krik? Krak! |
