Description
Child: A Memoir by Judy Goldman tells the story of her relationship with Mattie Culp, who worked for her family and helped raise her. This tender memoir is a book of small moments that form a more than sixty-year-long love story.
The author reflects on what it meant to be a white child in the Jim Crow south, and how their relationship evolved over time. Judy also explores the complexities of trust and loyalty between two women from different backgrounds, set against the backdrop of segregation and racism.
This memoir is a poignant exploration of love, memory, and identity, asking whether we can ever tell the whole truth, even to ourselves.
