All That She Carried: The Journey of Ashley's Sack, a Black Family Keepsake by Tiya Miles

challenging emotional informative inspiring reflective slow-paced

5.0

A wonderful antidote to a typical historical nonfiction work.  I loved how the author researched and “allowed” the space between the stitches to take life, and how she embraced the “spiritual” meaning of  Ashley’s sack.  In addition, the book really lent itself to being read aloud and the narrator was excellent.
