Everything you need to understand or teach Black Candle Women by Diane Marie Brown.
In Black Candle Women, Diane Marie Brown tells the story of a family of women who use their practices of Voodoo and hoodoo to uncover family secrets and heal trauma, eventually visiting the shop in New Orleans' French Quarter where their saga began. Told in third person, the novel narrates close to the perspective of each of the five women in the Montrose family, showing how each has a different view about spiritual power, love, Voodoo and hoodoo. With extensive details about hoodoo remedies, songs and spells, Black Candle Women follows in the vein of other African American women writers from the south like Zora Neal Hurston.
