Sassywood Man
And Other Folklores
Collection of Short Stories and Prose
In this collection of short stories and prose, Lorraine introduces her readers to life in Liberia, mostly in the 1970s, a crucial time in her childhood.
She hopes to convey the struggle of not only single mothers but of a people caught sometimes glued on the fringes of society—a disenfranchised and marginalized group.
She explores a time when the possibilities of aspiring beyond one's social huddle had many implications; and concludes with the hope of a new day and a brighter future in light of the hundreds of thousands who gave their lives through death, sacrifice, displacement, and time lost.
