Wench: An Unflinching Story of Four Enslaved Women's

Wench: An Unflinching Story of Four Enslaved Women's Friendship and Freedom Before the Civil War (P.S.)

Wench by Dolen Perkins-Valdez is startling and original fiction that raises provocative questions of power and freedom, love and dependence. An enchanting and unforgettable novel based on little-known fact, Wench combines the narrative allure of Cane River by Lalita Tademy and the moral complexities of Edward P. Jonesâ€™s The Known World as it tells the story of four blackÂ enslaved women in the years preceding the Civil War. A stunning debut novel, Wench marks author Perkins-Valdezâ€”previously a finalist for the 2009 Robert Olen Butler Short Fiction Prizeâ€”as a writer destined for greatness.
