Violet Fields, a black American singer in Paris clubs and music
halls, reflects on her life after decades of separation and
alienation from her Louisville, Kentucky origins. Inspired by the
legend of Josephine Baker, Violet is visited occasionally by the
spirit of Josephine. Violet's niece, Hope, arrives from the U.S.
and renews Violet's family ties. This gripping story, set in Paris,
delves into racial treatment, expatriate experience, social
mobility of African Americans, and family reunion dynamics. It is a
"deliciously evocative novel...sure to resonate with anyone who
cherishes family and treasures Paris."
