In this stunning novel, Dori Sanders tells a story of black-white relationships like no other ever written, as seen through the eyes of a ten-year-old girl who is bound to become one of the most apppealing and memorable characters in literature.

Dori Sanders' first novel, CLOVER was a smash hit. Now, with HER OWN PLACE, Dori Sanders tells a story about ordinary people taking part in a transformation of heart and mind—in the South, in the nation. "Resonates as powerfully as an old hymn."—Kirkus Reviews; "Like a ripe summer peach, HER OWN PLACE just keeps getting better and better until the last page leaves the reader longing for more."—Christian Science Monitor. A LITERARY GUILD SELECTION.
