A powerful, haunting -- and funny -- novel by the author of the Essence "RM" and Blackboard bestseller God Don't Like Ugly."The Upper Room," national bestselling author Mary Monroe's spectacular first novel, established her as a compelling, original and important new voice in African American fiction in the tradition of Alice Walker and Toni Morrison. Set in the bayous of the Florida Everglades, in a migrant labor camp, "The Upper Room" is a vibrant and lyrical story, peopled with richly-drawn and unforgettable characters: old Zeus, Fast Black and Yellow Jack, Brother Virgil and Cousin Hattie. And, most memorable of all, the indomitable, astounding, larger-than-life Mama Ruby, the seventh daughter of a seventh daughter, a woman with healing hands, a voracious appetite, and a switchblade and a crucifix at her bosom.
