Book review
"Before We Were Yours" book by Lisa Wingate, review by Jill Silvius
I have never read any of Lisa Wingate’s other award-winning books, but I may after this one! Before We Were Yours is poignant, devastating, and eye-opening, while refreshingly “clean” (it lacks curse words, sex scenes, etc.) I picked up Before We Were Yours because some friends were reading it, and I hoped to discuss it along with them.
The story toggles back and forth between 1939 Memphis and present-day South Carolina, but, unlike in many other books with two interwoven narratives, both plotlines are equally engrossing. In 1939, young Rill Foss attempts to take care of her four younger siblings aboard their riverboat Arcadia after her father Briny is urged by a frustrated midwife to take Rill’s mother Queenie to the hospital. (You will love her fierce heart and
quirky expressions as she tells her tale!) In Rill’s parents’ absence, all five children are kidnapped and essentially put on an “orphan auction block.”
However, they are told that, if they behave, they will be reunited with their parents. Rill clings to this
unlikely promise but begins to doubt, though, when the children are given new names and treated horribly at the Tennessee Children’s Home Society. As other children “disappear,” she struggles to keep her siblings together and away from the cruel Miss Tann and abusive Mr. Riggs, without much success.
In South Carolina decades later, lawyer Avery Stafford is drawn into a family mystery when retirement home resident May Crandall is found with Avery’s bracelet; Avery discovers that one of May’s photographs looks
surprisingly like Avery’s grandmother Judy, who suffers from increasing memory loss. Avery searches for answers to onnections between May and Judy. Her relationship with her stoic mother and her fiancé Elliot are shaken by what she learns, as her search makes her question the solidity of her aristocratic Stafford family.
The prevailing question for the reader is what is the connection between the two narratives? Ultimately, Wingate reveals the answer, and the ending of both narratives is necessarily bittersweet: memory loss robs us in old age, friendship does not equal true love, and stolen children do not always find their way home.
Nevertheless, romance blossoms, and the possible sweetness of sisterhood is celebrated. (I’m trying
hard not to give too much away here!) he outcome of Avery’s relationship with Elliot is obvious from the beginning, but Avery’s relationship to Rill is still a bit fuzzy. A genealogical map (albeit on the last page, to not give anything away too early) would be helpful!
The greatest strength of the novel is its revelations about Georgia Tann, who really did profit from her
illegal absconding and treatment of children for about two decades.
Wingate also helpfully lists nonfiction titles for those interested in learning more about the Tennessee
Children’s Home scandal.

THIS DAY IN HISTORY - October 25
Pablo Picasso born 1881
Pablo Picasso, one of the greatest and most influential artists of the 20th century, is born in Malaga, Spain.
Picasso’s father was a professor of drawing, and he bred his son for a career in academic art. Picasso had his first exhibit at age 13 and later quit art school so he could experiment full-time with modern art styles. He went to Paris for the first time in 1900, and in 1901 was given an exhibition at a gallery on Paris’ rue Lafitte, a street known for its prestigious art galleries. The precocious 19-year-old Spaniard was at the time a relative unknown outside Barcelona, but he had already produced hundreds of paintings. Winning favorable reviews, he stayed in Paris for the rest of the year and later returned to the city to settle permanently.
The work of Picasso, which comprises more than 50,000 paintings, drawings, engravings, sculptures, and ceramics produced over 80 years, is described in a series of overlapping periods. His first notable period–the “blue period”—began shortly after his first Paris exhibit. In works such as The Old Guitarist(1903), Picasso painted in blue tones to evoke the melancholy world of the poor. The blue period was followed by the “rose period,” in which he often depicted circus scenes, and then by Picasso’s early work in sculpture. In 1907, Picasso painted the groundbreaking work Les Demoiselles d’Avignon, which, with its fragmented and distorted representation of the human form, broke from previous European art. Les Demoiselles d’Avignon demonstrated the influence on Picasso of both African mask art and Paul Cezanne and is seen as a forerunner of the Cubist movement, founded by Picasso and the French painter Georges Braque in 1909.
