Learn moreA personal meditation on love in the shadow of white privilege and racism
Child is the story of Judy Goldman's relationship with Mattie Culp, the Black woman who worked for her family as a live-in maid and helped raise her—the unconscionable scaffolding on which the relationship was built and the deep love. It is also the story of Mattie's child, who was left behind to be raised by someone else. Judy, now eighty, cross-examines what it was to be a privileged white child in the Jim Crow South, how a bond can evolve in and out of step with a changing world, and whether we can ever tell the whole truth, even to ourselves. It is an incandescent book of small moments, heart-warming, heartbreaking, and, ultimately, inspiring.
Judy Goldman is the award-winning author of seven books, including Together: A Memoir of a Marriage and a Medical Mishap, named one of the best books of 2019 by Real Simple. She lives in Charlotte, North Carolina.
Narrating stories from a place of curiosity, compassion, and delight, Tiffany Morgan accesses her twenty-plus years as an actor to lift the story from the page and into the listener's imagination. Having narrated over 200 titles in a variety of genres, Tiffany's sweet spot is balanced somewhere between cozy mysteries, stories set in the southern United States, and nonfiction books with an empowered female point of view. She also has enjoyed narrating dozens of children's books and educational titles for school curriculums and training. In addition to audiobooks, Tiffany works regularly in film and television, regional theater productions, improv, and a diverse group of animated series.
