Award-winning playwright, author and critic Bonnie Greer’s touching, funny and thought-provoking memoir is a voyage into the making of a woman who set out to unmake what she’d been born and brought up to be: ‘a proper girl’ – a precious definition in a segregate and racist America where black life was deemed only three-fifths of white life … and the life of a black woman even less.
