Our Song: A Memoir of Love and Race

-For readers who liked … : SWP’s Hippie Chick and No Rules, both of which have sold quite well, and Gina Frangello’s Blow Your House Down.

This book will appeal to millennials who are interested in the social upheaval of the ‘60s and the continuing need for racial justice today, and to baby boomers who are nostalgic about their youth.

Timeliness: Our Song illuminates racial prejudice that is, unfortunately, still prevalent in this country half a century later, a fact that was brought back into the spotlight with the summer of 2020’s Black Lives Matter protests.

A unique memoir angle/fascinating personal story: Most youthful breakups recede into our memories. In Our Song, a couple has another chance forty years later.
