Review: Come Out The Wilderness: Memoir of a Black Woman Artist.

This is a book worth reading, however, the first 100 pages are a little slow. The Artist (Stella) is the only girl among five brothers, and is one of the only African American students in her Catholic school. Her attempts to deal with and overcome Sexism and Racism in her home, school and marriages makes for good reading. In her first marriage she is forced to choose between the man she fell in love with and marriage and the person he became. He had problems handling his work related stress caused by racism. His other problems include her holding out sexually until he agreed to marry her, the early birth of their first child and dropping out of college.

Review: This book is a real treat to read. I am impressed not only by the writing of this author. She actually has a real movie story in the works. I have read other works by Estella -- This is well written as usual, tasteful, entertaining and family oriented. Thank You so much
