Red at the Bone is an extraordinary new novel from Jacqueline Woodson, the New York Times-bestselling and National Book Award-winning author of Another Brooklyn and Brown Girl Dreaming and the 2018-2019 National Ambassador for Young People’s Literature. Two families from different social classes are joined by an unexpected pregnancy. With the power of poetry and the emotional richness of a narrative ten times its length, Woodson uncovers the role that history and community have played in the experiences of these families and this child.
Cosponsored by 90.3 KAZU, the Humanities Institute at UC Santa Cruz, and Friends of the Santa Cruz Public Libraries.
