The Color of Water: A Black Man’s Tribute to his White Mother, by James McBride
This 1996 memoir – an American classic – was on The New York Times Best Seller list for two years, launching the prolific career of James McBride.
Who is Ruth McBride Jordan? A self-declared “light-skinned” woman evasive about her ethnicity, yet steadfast in her love for her twelve black children. James McBride, journalist, musician, and son, explores his mother’s past, as well as his own upbringing and heritage, in a poignant and powerful debut.
“As lively as a novel, a well-written, thoughtful contribution to the literature on race.”—The Washington Post Book World
