Sobre IBD

Troost is a real street. East of it is where you can buy a house if you’re Black. It’s also where our middle-aged white narrator grew up-and where she has just returned to reboot her life. How will she fare in this vastly changed world? This fictional story, punctuated by factual memoir, is by turns soul-searching, entertaining, and heartbreaking.
