The House of Eve

 Fiction by Sadequa Johnson


Ruby and Eleanor are both young black women in the 1950's, and both of them find themselves unexpectedly pregnant and unmarried. Because of their class and age differences, their paths after "getting in trouble" are not the same. Ruby is only fifteen, and hoping to go to college to rise out of poverty, while Eleanor is twenty, already attending Howard University, and has a few more options.

Their two stories are completely separate; however, the reader knows that there will be a link. This was a great story with memorable characters.
