The Seduction of Mr. Bradley by Minnie Miller

Bill Bradley is struggling his way from an unpopular lifestyle; however, a debt is his heaviest burden. He learns variations on the subject of love, and that they all carry emotional commitment. He cries to heaven and "hears" truth, trust, and love are their own rewards. Walk with him. Feel his pain about life and truth.

Bill Bradley stood on the shore of the expansive Lake Michigan and spoke to its rolling waves. “True, I’m at the end of a life cycle, a real crossroad. I’ve measured the battle for two years, named the war, laid out the perimeters, and here it’s the beginning of 2006. I figure I’m looking at another two years of battling on the frontlines, with help—fighting alone may take a little longer.” He was haunted by thoughts of his childhood. “Sometimes I wish I could see my father’s face. Don’t want to relive that time, don’t even wanna talk to him, just see his face. I remember Mom’s face, her pain, the desire to live, gone. No one could make her smile, not even her son, her man-child, her only child.”

Growing Up In Mississippi, by Bertha Davis

SYNOPSIS An Award Winning “Best Book 2004”, this vivid and descriptive biography grips at the very core of every human emotion. Growing up in somewhat painfully poor social conditions in Mississippi does not deter the family, but bonds them together with the unified strength and triumph most prevalent in top movies like Soul Food, or even to overcome travesties, as in The Color Purple.

You will be intrigued by the strong development of characters like the wayward Uncle Wigley, a cursed character among many black families who resorts to inflicting abuse on family members. And the relationship between Jay and Tish, a classic example of how women in the past wound up with larger, unplanned families because love conquered all back then, even poverty.
