Synopsis
As an African-American woman travels through the USA and Europe in search of her lost father, her thoughts turn to her strict upbringing in Chicago and her move to bohemian New York. This tale rejects the simplification of black roots and celebrates the tradition of African-American writers., A Black American woman travels through the United States and Europe in search of her lost father. In the letters she writes to him she remembers her strict Catholic childhood in Chicago, her move to bohemian New York, and her bewilderment at growing up. When she discovers Degas? painting of a young mulatto circus performer hanging by her teeth at the top of a circus tent, she makes the performer, ?Miss La La?, the symbol of her life. An elegant reflection on ?home? and ?belonging?, Hanging by Her Teeth rejects the simplifictions of ?roots? and celebrates a tradition of Black American writers who went to Europe to find themselves. It is the first novel of an outstanding new voice in American fiction.
