Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. A young black girl watches as her aunts multiple suitors disrupt her familys privacy. The same girl, now on the cusp of adulthood, shares her familys growing fears that her father has disappeared. Acclaimed author Ann Petry penned these and the other unforgettable narratives in Miss Muriel and Other Stories more than fifty years ago, yet in them contemporary readers recognize characters who exist today and dilemmas that recur again and again : the reluctance of African Americans to seek help from the police; the rage that erupts in a black man worn down by brutality; the tyranny that the young can visit on their elders regardless of race. Originally published between 1945 and 1971, Petrys stories capture the essence of the African American experience in the 1950s and 1960s. "This book was originally published by Houghton Mifflin in 1971. It was published as a Mariner Book in 1999."
