Dear Reader,
It is 1959 and girls are sent away from their families if they are pregnant and unwed. Some have to go to homes for "fallen women." Most are sent to live with a relative until the baby is born and then the family decides what to do with the child. The mother has no say.
That's the fate that Olivia Jean Stone faces. She is sent down south, to live with her grandmother, because of her pregnancy. Her mother, Daisy, a woman with her own secrets, is forced to stay down south too and they live with Daisy's mother, Birdie, a big woman with a mean left hook.
GOING DOWN SOUTH is the story of three generations of women living under one roof. Best selling author Carleen Brice said of the characters, Olivia Jean, Daisy and Birdie, "Their stories will break your heart in the very best way."
