pickThis is a beautifully written coming of age/family saga set between 1897 and 1925. It studies a part of American history which is not taught in school and largely ignored by many - the beginning of the African-American press. Jam on the Vine is instructive, poignant, sensual, and a must read. It is what all historical fiction novels should be, however most of them are not. #lashondakatricebarnett #ReadSoulLit #blackpress #blackwomenwrite
