Precious

By Sapphire

Claireece Precious Jones endures unimaginable hardships in her young life. Abused by her mother, raped by her father, she grows up poor, angry, illiterate, fat, unloved and generally unnoticed. Emotionally raw and gut-wrenching, Bahni Trupin's reading renders Precious and each of the supporting characters as distinctly living, breathing human beings.
