I know what the red clay looks like

In I Know What the Red Clay Looks Like, Rebecca Carroll skillfully interviews fifteen black women writers. Carroll includes both major, established writers such as Gloria Naylor, Rita Dove, and Nikki Giovanni, and newer, emerging writers like Tina McElroy Ansa and Lorene Cary. With eloquence, candor, and a strong sense of sisterhood, these women tell their stories. Each interview is accompanied by an excerpt from the author's work, introducing readers to the variety and richness of their work.
