"In its strong folk flavor, Cooper's work reminds us of Langston Hughes and Zora Neale Hurston...It is a delight to read." --Alice Walker "The label 'short' story is a woefully inadequate description of these intensely, explicitly moral tales. 'Parable' is more appropriate. Cooper's stories are rich in wisdom and insight." --Belles Lettres "J. California Cooper is indeed an extraordinary writer...She has the rare quality of a natural storyteller, and her work must carry the highest recommendation. Definitely a book that's worth reading." --African Concord(Zimbabwe), "In its strong folk flavor, Cooper's work reminds us of Langston Hughes and Zora Neale Hurston...It is a delight to read." --Alice Walker "The label 'short' story is a woefully inadequate description of these intensely, explicitly moral tales.

Seller feedback (44,160)
- s***n (408)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseJust as described, book was like new. Item shipped in a box, great!, however, the box was much bigger than the book with nothing to hold the book inside so it got banged around inside the box during shipping. Used boxes that fit better or packaging material.
- n***4 (76)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseAmazing seller! One Planet Books provided me with the very best value on this new, high-quality book! It's a rare find at this quality & value -- PLUS, super fast shipping! I'm totally amazed that exceptional sellers like One Planet Books still exist who truly care about the customer. Even the box that the book was packaged in was sturdy & made just for books! My book arrived in perfectly new condition & appearance, fast delivery, all-in-all the best experience I could ever hope for! THANK YOU!Troubled Memories: Iconic Mexican Women and the Traps of Representation (Gender (#196555213893)
- r***r (1)- Feedback left by buyer.Past yearVerified purchaseArrived sooner than predicted, packaged well and in decent condition. The cover and back cover are pretty beat up, but the inside is undamaged. Description was not totally accurate (for example, the page count was different--but it doesn't appear that any pages are missing), but for the price point, it can't be beat. I would definitely buy from this seller again.The Paralegal Professional (4th Edition) by Goldman, Thomas F. (#196447639550)
