Gathering of Waters is a deeply engrossing tale narrated by the town of Money, Mississippi - a site both significant and infamous in our collective story as a nation. Money is personified in this haunting story, which chronicles its troubled history following the arrival of the Hilson and Bryant families. Tass Hilson and Emmett Till were young and in love when Emmett was brutally murdered in 1955. Anxious to escape the town, Tass marries Maximillian May and relocates to Detroit. Forty years later, after the death of her husband, Tass returns to Money and fantasy takes flesh when Emmett Till's spirit is finally released from the dank, dark waters of the Tallahatchie River. The two lovers are reunited, bringing the story to an enchanting and profound conclusion.

Gathering of Waters mines the truth about Money, Mississippi, as well as the town's families, and threads their history over decades. The bare-bones realism - both disturbing and riveting - combined with a magical realm in which ghosts have the final say, is reminiscent of Toni Morrison's Beloved.

Bernice McFadden has a very special gift. She has taken a heartbreaking event and healed so many scars. This gem of a novel is so haunting, yet healing. I completed it, then immediately replayed it.

Robin Miles continues to be one of the best narrators of all time. The story is beautiful, spiritual and rich. It's a lovely tribute to Emmett Till.

I enjoyed this book for its creativity, character development and inventiveness. The narration given by the “town” I found very refreshing and the narrator herself was even more so! Would definitely recommend this book.

This author has easily become one of my new favorite of all time...very reminiscent of a Tori Morrison story with the author's unique ability to intertwine the characters lives for the reader to see the entire book as a movie!

A beautiful depiction of a horrible experience
