KDL Description:
THE EDIFICATION OF SONYA CRANE by J D Guilford is Sonya’s story, a tale of racial identity and secrets. Prior to attending PDL, Sonya rides the train from her therapist in Atlanta’s East side back to Buckhead. There she eyes a group of girls whom she wishes to emulate. Once attending school, these same girls are in some of the same classes with Sonya and she seeks their friendship. Sonya adopts their mannerism, dress and attitude all in an effort to fit in. On the flip side, Tandy, the leader of this clique, appears to be street smart but hides her soaring grades and her status as the daughter of a renowned artist. When Tandy discovers Sonya’s true identity, Sonya uses her knowledge of Tandys’ identity to her benefit.
