FORMAT Paperback CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description Ailey Pearl Garfield grows up between the City in the north and summers spent in her mothers small hometown of Chicasetta, Georgia. From an early age, she finds herself in a battle for belonging thats made all the more difficult by a hurt in her past, as well as the whispers of women—her mother, Belle, her sister, Lydia, and a maternal line reaching back two centuries—that urge Ailey to succeed in their stead.To come to terms with her identity, Ailey embarks on a journey through her familys past, uncovering the shocking tales of generations of ancestors—Indigenous, Black, and white—in the deep South. In doing so Ailey must learn to embrace her full heritage, a legacy of oppression and resistance, bondage and independence, cruelty and resilience that is the story—and the song—of America itself.

A sweeping family saga that is also history at its most intimate and vital Stef Penney, author of The Tenderness of Wolves Promotional The International Bestseller & Oprah Book Club Pick Review Quote Astonishing... I lived in this novel for three weeks. It is long. It is a journey. It is something so remarkable Im not sure we collectively ever even dreamed it. Alice Walker, author of The Color Purple A major, almost 800-page novel that beautifully, and traumatically, weaves a spell of a story about more than ten generations of an American family--indigenous, African and European. Its going to be a long time before I stop thinking about Ailey and Uncle Root. A remarkable work Afua Hirsch, author of Brit(ish) Once in a while a book comes along whose scope in storytelling is breath-taking. Whose characters are so vivid they embody a sense of rich familiarity. A book I urge everyone to read. The Love Songs of W.E.B. Du Bois is that book Sarah Winman, author of Still Life The Love Songs of W.E.B. Du Bois is the kind of book that comes around only once a decade ... With the depth of its intelligence and the breadth of its vision, Love Songs is simply magnificent Washington Post Quite simply the best book that I have read in a very, very long time... Just as Toni Morrison did in Beloved, Jeffers uses fiction to fill in the gaping blanks of those who have been rendered nameless and therefore storyless... A sweeping, masterly debut New York Times Just as brilliant as it is necessary, just as intimate as it is expansive. An outstanding portrait of an American family and in turn, an outstanding portrait of America Angie Thomas, author of The Hate U Give Its awe-inspiring. Massive, unflagging, gripping, gorgeous. A sweeping family saga that is also history at its most intimate and vital. I will be recommending it everyone I know.
