"Irene Wilson knows that a 'no-name invisible something' has settled over her parents' marriage, and she suspects that her glamorous new teacher is to blame. Irene is not alone in her suspicions. In Rattlebone, a Black neighborhood of Kansas City in the segregated 1950s, secrets are hard to keep, and growing up is a community affair. As Irene is initiated into adult passion and loss, her family story takes its place in a tightly woven tapestry of neighbors whose griefs and joys are as vivid as her own. Too long out of print, this luminous classic captures an entire world through the eyes of an unforgettable heroine." -- Jacket flap.
