The autobiography of Miss Jane Pittman

Gaines, Ernest J. 1933- (Author). Jordan, Tonya. (Added Author).

Summary: This is a novel in the guise of the tape-recorded recollections of a black woman who has lived 110 years, who has been both a slave and a witness to the black militancy of the 1960s. Gaines has created a legendary figure, a woman equipped to stand beside William Faulkner's Dilsey in The Sound and the Fury. Miss Jane Pittman, like Dilsey, has endured, has seen almost everything, and has foretold the rest.
