Title: Womanish
Description: Presents a collection of essays that explore what it means to be a black woman in today's turbulent times. Writing on topics such as dating after divorce, depression, parenting older children, the Obamas, and the often fraught relations between white and black women, McLarin draws upon a lifetime of experiences to paint a portrait of a middle-aged black woman trying to come to terms with the world around her, and of a society trying to come to terms with black women. --From publisher description.
