Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rachel Landrum Crumble's hard-won collection of faith and doubt Sister Sorrow traces a lifetime of decoding a childhood with a beautiful, artistic, schizophrenic mom, experiencing otherness through international travel, becoming a Yankee transplant to the South, marriage as a white woman in 1981 to a Black man and raising biracial children in Chattanooga, TN in the 80's and 90's. It explores cycles of depression and grief over her mother's suicide, and how, although recursive, grief can also lead to wisdom, and a deepening capacity for joy. Sister Sorrow embraces the awkward and the ridiculous as essential aspects of our humanity.
