The bed she was born in / Jeri Fitzgerald Board.
"An award-winning historical novel, The Bed She Was Born In is the story of five women--three black and two white--and the intimate relationships that bind them throughout a tumultuous century in American history. Fate brings these women together but it is a covenant of love, strength, and courage that sustain them as they struggle with the harsh realities of sex, violence, race, and class." -- Amazon.com
