Re: WOC Rec Thread

[personal profile] sadiesockmonkey 2017-07-18 03:56 am (UTC)(link)
The Boatman sisters and Rosaleen in Sue Monk Kidd's The Secret Life of Bees are great characters, though I'll admit if you're looking strictly for WOC fiction, you'll be turned off the narrator or POV character is a young white girl, so this is a rec that should be taken with a grain of salt. YMMV and all that.

Lillith's Brood or The Xenogenesis Trilogy by Octavia Butler is amazing. It's all about how racial inequality and racism within the human race will be our downfall in the event of an alien invasion.

The Living Blood by Tananarive Due is the second in a trilogy (though as of yet it's the only one I've read) and (primarily) follows a black single mother raising a daughter with supernatural abilities that result from her father being part of a cult of immortal men who have the blood of Jesus in their veins.

Who Fears Death by Nnedi Okorafor. It follows a group of four young girls in post-apocalyptic Sudan.

The House on Mango Street by Sandra Cisneros is a collection of vignettes about a young Latina girl growing up in Chicago.
