| Summary |
"The Living Is Easy, Dorothy West's first novel and one of only a handful of novels published by Black women in the forties, tells the story of Cleo Judson, daughter of Southern sharecroppers, who is determined to integrate herself and her daughter, Judy, into Boston's Black elite. Married to the "Black Banana King" Bart Judson, Cleo meanwhile maneuvers her three sisters and their children--but not their husbands--into living with her, attempting to re-create her original family in a newly rented ten-room mansion." --back cover. |
