Ntozake Shange's beloved
Sassafrass, Cypress & Indigo
is the story of three sisters and their mother from Charleston, South Carolina.
"A jubilant celebration of womanhood—as moving as the moon . . . pure magic."
Kansas City Star
Sassafrass, the oldest, is a poet and a weaver like her mother before her. Having gone north to college, she is now living with other artists in Los Angeles and trying to weave a life out of her work, her man, her memories and dreams. Cypress, the dancer, leaves home to find new ways of moving in the world. Indigo, the youngest, is still a child of Charleston-"too much of the south in her"-who lives in poetry and has the supreme gift of seeing the obvious magic of the world. Shange's rich and wondrous story of womanhood, art, and passionately-lived lives is written "with such exquisite care and beauty that anybody can relate to her message" (
The New York Times
).
