In Black & White
by Catherine Lavender
Publication date: Spring 2016
Genres: Adult, Contemporary
Micah Winters always knew that
she was different. It was the pigment of her skin and the texture of her hair
that revealed that she was a woman from biracial parents. For five decades,
Micah’s African American mother has remained silent about Micah’s estranged
father (Sidney Irving). It is not until after Sidney Irving’s death that Micah
learns that she is the daughter of the legendary novelist and screenwriter. Now
with her mother’s memory fading away from Alzheimer’s disease, Micah can only
rely on a novel that was written from her father years ago to understand her
parents past during the time of segregation in the United States. Micah’s once
simple life is not so simple anymore as she tries to make sense of an
unfamiliar world as she inherits her father’s wealth and private past. With an
abandoned heart, Micah must forgive the past in order to discover who she
really is.
