Your Blues Ain't Like Mine

De: Bebe Moore Campbell, Alison Smith

Narrado por: Alfre Woodard

Chicago-born Armstrong Tom is fifteen, black and unused to the segregated ways of the Deep South when his mother sends him to spend the summer with relatives in her native rural Mississippi. For speaking a few innocuous words in French to a white woman, Armstrong pays the ultimate price when her husband and his friends come to teach him a lesson.

Each of these characters-white and black- are changed, then, and forever, by the horror of poverty, the legacy of justice, and love's power to heal.

abridge sucks

This book is a classic, i read it when it was first released. So when I saw that it was Audio I thought great! But I was really disappointed with this audio version. The sound quality was terrible, It left out big portions of the story. If you ever get a chance to read it you will really enjoy it.

2nd time

Read the book almost 10 yrs ago and reading it again . Worth it .

Great story, good performance, so what the heck?!

The only issue with this audiobook is that it literally cuts out all of the chapters with Clayton in it and that’s like a good third of the book. Smh

Abridged version

Would you try another book from Bebe Moore Campbell and/or Alfre Woodard and Allison Smith ?

Yes. Defintely. This is a great book but Caution it is the abridged version and left out a lot of relevant information. I read a hard copy of this before I listened to this so it was not as good.

great

the book is great, there is a chapter missing. I checked the actual book. I definitely recommend this book, the details, the way the author describes all of the characters thoughts, well done. Everyone should read this, we are no better than those we judged.
