  • Summary

  • Clifton takes some creative liberties with biblical characters, giving them desires and complexities unlike in any other telling of these stories. These characters take on meaning in their own right and within a context of African-American history. Most notably, Lucille seems to identify with Lucifer as God's critic, a critic who will not be silenced.
