But this story is about so much more than that. Matriarch begins with a precocious, if unruly, little girl growing up in 1950s Galveston, the youngest of seven. She is in love with her world, with extended family on every other porch and the sounds of Motown and the lapping beach always within earshot. But as the realities of race and the limitations of girlhood set in, she begins to dream of the world beyond. Her instincts and impulsive nature drive her far beyond the shores of Texas to discover the life awaiting her on the other side of childhood. That life's journey--through grief and tragedy, creative and romantic risks and turmoil, the nurturing of superstar offspring and of her own special gifts--is the remarkable story she shares with readers here. This is a page-turning chronicle of family love and heartbreak, of loss and perseverance, and of the kind of creativity, audacity, and will it takes for a girl from Galveston to change the world. It's one brilliant woman's intimate and revealing story, and a multigenerational family saga that carries within it the story of America--and the wisdom that women pass on to each other, mothers to daughters, across generations"--]]></description><link>https://austin.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S67C2250548</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://austin.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S67C2250548</guid><category><![CDATA[LPRINT]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Knowles, Tina]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2025 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://austin.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2250548067</comments><format>LPRINT</format><subtitle>A Memoir</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9798217070374/MC.GIF&amp;client=austinpl&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item></channel></rss>
