Set against the backdrop of 1940s and 50s South Carolina, this memoir explores the complex relationship between Judy Kurtz, a white girl, and Mattie Culp, a Black woman who helped raise her. Through shared experiences and societal challenges, including segregation and racism, Judy reflects on their deep bond, the sacrifices made, and the impact of Jim Crow laws on their lives. As Judy, now eighty, examines her past, she contemplates themes of love, memory, and the difficulty of conveying the full truth of their intertwined stories.
