The novel follows Gilda’s experiences as she wrestles with the responsibilities of supernatural power and the challenges of unending life, swooping in on key episodes that each take place in a different time and city. When a young black girl escapes from a life of slavery in 1850s Louisiana, she takes refuge in a brothel run by two mysterious women who educate her, become her family, and eventually introduce her to the world of vampirism and eternal life.
This 25th anniversary edition relaunches Gomez's ( Don't Explain, 1998, etc.) novel about an assumption-shattering woman who happens to be black, lesbian, and a vampire.
