Night wherever we go : a novel / Tracey Rose Peyton. by Peyton, Tracey Rose, author. New York, NY : Ecco, an imprint of HarperCollins Publishers, [2023] Subjects Enslaved women -- Fiction.   Slaveholders -- Fiction.   Plantations -- Texas -- Fiction.   Birth control -- United States -- Fiction. ISBN:  9780063249875 (hardcover) 0063249871 (hardcover) Description:  295 pages ; 22 cm Edition:  First edition. Requests:  1 Summary:  A gripping, radically intimate debut novel about a group of enslaved women staging a covert rebellion against their owners. On a struggling Texas plantation, six enslaved women slip from their sleeping quarters and gather in the woods under the cover of night. The Lucys--as they call the plantation owners, after Lucifer himself--have decided to turn around the farm's bleak financial prospects by making the women bear children. They have hired a "stockman" to impregnate them. But the women are determined to protect themselves. Now each of the six faces a choice. Nan, the doctoring woman, has brought a sack of cotton root clippings that can stave off children when chewed daily. If they all take part, the Lucys may give up and send the stockman away. But a pregnancy for any of them will only encourage the Lucys further. And should their plan be discovered, the consequences will be severe. Visceral and arresting, Night Wherever We Go illuminates each woman's individual trials and desires while painting a subversive portrait of collective defiance. Unflinching in her portrayal of America's gravest injustices, while also deeply attentive to the transcendence, love, and solidarity of women whose interior lives have been underexplored, Tracey Rose Peyton creates a story of unforgettable power.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Kailua-Kona Public Library Adult Fiction Peyton Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kapolei Public Library Adult Fiction Peyton Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kealakekua Public Library Adult Fiction Peyton Checked In Add Copy to MyList Makawao Public Library Adult Fiction Peyton Checked In Add Copy to MyList McCully-Moiliili Public Library Adult Fiction Peyton Checked In Add Copy to MyList Thelma Parker Memorial P/S Library Adult Fiction Peyton Checked In Add Copy to MyList Wailuku Public Library Adult Fiction Peyton Checked In Add Copy to MyList Waipahu Public Library Adult Fiction Peyton Checked In Add Copy to MyList
