Reminiscences examines the growth and life of a young African American boy coming of age in the second half of the twentieth century. Jamarius Russell is the main protagonist, and he informs the reader of events and circumstances that affected him as his family as the years rolled by. As he reflects and looks back on his years and those of his family, his grandparents and his ancestors from a previous time and place. This is an American novel about America and about its history. It is a story about a group of people, over generations, facing critical moments in their lives and their history. Reminiscences has a cinematic quality to it as the years pass by as Jamarius Russell, Lee Somersom Russell and Eloise Sudey, the elderly senior citizen, tell a tale of woe and hope, of aspiration and disappointment and of life and death. Remiscences is a story readers would enjoy because the reader gets to experience and live what the characters live.
