Publisher's Note
In a remarkable debut novel that sizzles with sensuality, crackles with life-affirming energy and moves the reader to laughter and tears, author Pearl Cleage creates a world rich in character, human drama, and deep, compassionate understanding. After a decade of luxe living in Atlanta, Ava Johnson has returned to tiny Idlewild, Michigan--her fabulous career and power plans smashed to bits on one dark truth: Ava has tested positive for HIV. Bur rather than a sorrowful end, her homecoming is a new beginning. Because, in the ten-plus years since she left, all the problems of the big city have invaded the sleepy community of her childhood. Because dear friends and family sorely need her help in the face of impending trouble and tragedy, and Ava cannot turn her back on them. And because, most importantly, Ava Johnson is inexplicably and undeniably falling in love.
This highly praised debut novel by a renowned African-American playwright/essayist is a gritty yet warm and inspiring story of hope, love, and homecoming.

Industry reviews
"There is a wealth of poetry in Ava's efforts to keep her head above water. Following Cleage's twists and turns of the human spirit, readers may find themselves in a very inspired and uplifted plane well before the last page."
Washington Post Book World - Lisa Teasley (02/01/1998)

"It takes talent to make a love story between an AIDS victim and a convicted murderer work, but playwright/essayist Cleage more than meets the challenge in this gutsy, very likable fiction debut....Watch out, Terry McMillan. Cleage is on your tail."
Tuttle
