Award-winning author June Spence delivers a remarkable debut novel in Change Baby-and an unforgettable heroine in Avie Goss, a young woman who returns to the Southern home she abandoned years before... This description may be from another edition of this product.
A wonderful book. Beautifully written, moving and emotionally rewarding, Change Baby follows the lives of a southern family from generation to generation. Stunning for a first novel and a great one for a book club - but perhaps even more enjoyable when savoured alone. If you want rich characters, great prose and emotional depth, this is the book for you.
Going/Finding Home
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
Change Baby is alot about finding yourself and where you fit in your family, especially when the family leads you to believe one thing about yourself and you find that life isn't really all that you thought it was. Avie Goss returns to home to take care of mother, mostly because her older sister says it is her responsibility because she just can't do it. No matter, Avie is just looking for a reason to get away from her current situation and taking care of mother seems as good of reason as any to return home. Avie immerses herself in the care of her mother and in the process finds that her family is not all that she was lead to believe and as the mysteries of her family unfolds so does Avie as she finally finds her place. It has been a while since I have read a book that I was so engrossed in from cover to cover that I actually resented having to put it down for real life stuff.
