October Suite focuses on October Brown, who starts her young adulthood as a teacher during the 1950s. As she is African-American, this is the perspective from what this novel gives. Additionally, this novel focuses on her family and friends around her and how October navigates her personal challenges. It's a quiet book -- I can't think of a better way to describe it than that. I liked it. ( ) geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
