Lola Jones is in prison for the death of her mother’s former lover, a man whose presence tangled itself through both their lives. After years of silence, Lola writes a letter to the dead man’s daughter—the “secret sister” from the better part of town in whose shadow Lola has lived most of her life.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs Lola reaches across time and memory, her story unfolds in two mirrored movements: the first, a chronicle of her mother, Camille, a blues singer shaped by love, ambition, and loss; the second, a recounting of Lola’s own coming of age in the echo of Camille’s legacy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBraided with music, memory, and the weight of being misunderstood, \u003ci\u003eSweet Water \u003c\/i\u003eexplores inheritance, identity, and the ways women learn to survive what they cannot control. It is a story about Black women connected and separated by their experiences with each other, and with the men in their lives. Written as a letter, structured like a blues song—call and response, verse and refrain—the novel asks what it means to reclaim your voice when someone else’s pain has defined your existence.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"HarperCollins","offers":[{"title":"Audio CD","offer_id":67733245329712,"sku":"ZE1y01","price":49.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Audio MP3-CD","offer_id":67733245362480,"sku":"ZM1y01","price":45.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Audiobook [BD]","offer_id":67733245395248,"sku":"BD1y01","price":28.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/downpour.com\/products\/book-1y01","provider":"Downpour","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
