    Hated to Finish
  

*by M***R on Reviewed in the United States on March 13, 2012*

I finished reading 'Some Sing, Some Cry' four days ago, and it's been a sad four days. I was so involved with the characters and their lives, leaving them was a major loss. As another reviewer said, the book zooms along, almost too fast at some points -- but to cover 200 years of history in a reasonable amount of time and space these sister-authors must have felt it necessary. Yes, they could have lingered and gone into every character in greater depth -- but it would've been an entirely different book. I liked how they compressed their stories so that the people in each generation are seamlessly connected to those that came before; it's my guess the writers wanted to accomplish exactly that. They've given us a way of looking at the history of African-Americans from the end of slavery to the present day, making us feel how short this history really is, and how much the past informs the present.On a personal note, I'm curious as to how  they wrote the book together, and wish they'd write about their process. At times I thought I could identify some of shange's passages, having read her before; particularly the way she weaves music into the narrative so it becomes as much a part of the story as dialog or events.I've loved the work of ntozake shange ever since "for colored girls who've considered suicide when the rainbow is enough." She isn't very prolific, but when she does write a play or a poem or a novel, it's well worth the wait. Still, this book has me hungry for more. I'd love it if the authors decided to focus in on one or a few of the characters from the book, and take them further. Can you writers hear me? Encore!

    Some Sing, Some Cry
  

*by J***M on Reviewed in the United States on May 30, 2011*

I am just about finished with this wonderful novel.  It depicts the strength and grit of the Southern Black woman, and therefore is a tribute to women everywhere!  This story started with Betty Mayfield, a slave, who has born her master's children.  When she was emancipated, she took her granddaughter and fled to Charleston.  Bette was a fotune- teller, and young Eudora (Dora) becomes an accomplished seamtress, only to marry a man who could never meet her needs.  In his desperation to please her, and make a fortune, he abandones the family and heads West, never to be heard from again.  Their property,now lost to debt,throws them into complete ruin.  Whatever is to become of Bette, now old and bent, and Dora and her two girls?-- one a beautiful singer with so much promise and the other a spitfire, very much like her father in looks and temperment.  The storyline continues all the way to New York and Paris.  What lies between is for the reader to discover---what a treat in store!

    Slower start that crescendos
  

*by P***D on Reviewed in the United States on June 13, 2018*

I loved the timespan. I seldom read books that trace a family lineage through music and history. It wasn’t my choice, but my book club’s selection. I am sure our discussion will take more than an hour and a half!
