Description

This searing first novel is the story of Sarah Stewart, a young black Harvard graduate in the 1960s whose growing interest in Africa—and down a path of self-discovery, love, and the choice between loyalty and truth.

This is at once the story of the emerging civil rights movement and the beginning of Afro-centrism. Lyrical. Lyrical, moving, and ultimately uncompromising, Sarah's Psalm is also a powerful story of love and coming of age.

Karen Grigsby Bates Los Angeles Times Ladd's finely crafted story...is a valuable addition to the ever-widening world of African-American letters.
Rebecca Nemser Boston Magazine Ladd is a true storyteller, and Sarah's story has the making of a modern myth.
Rosellen Brown A painful and...joyous book.
Jayne Anne Phillips A moving testament to one woman's complex journey through the heartland of the self.
