Odessa

It's been said that every girl "marries" her father. But there were no observable signs that Odessa Fenton would one day seek to do so as both Odessa and the father she knew were poor and Black while the man she would eventually come to love was not only married but well to do and White. This is a story about a post-Depression foster child who struggles to find social acceptance and professional success in the face of great odds.
