When Wisdom Whispers

Dixie Dunkirk, eight-years-old, with her mother, Florence, traversing Brooklyn streets on a most humid day, tells a little boy, five-years-old, named Jason, who is riding his bicycle in a predominantly white neighborhood: "My mother and I are hungry, and homeless; and we are looking for a place to live. "Last night we slept in Marine Park. You know of anybody who will help us?"Jason jumps off his bicycle, and says loudly, "Yes Yes Ask Aunt Ruby. She helps everybody."Aunt Ruby, the Good Samaritan, a true character, plays a vital role in Lloyd Hollis Crooks's novel, When Wisdom Whispers, which is based on a true story.In adulthood, Dixie and Jason fall in love; he is seriously injured in a motor accident, and she gives him her O-negative blood to save his life. Rumors of Dixie's other lovers take on lives of their own. One rumor is shocking to Aunt Ruby. But is it true?When Wisdom Whispers reveals the causes of why some love affairs go awry, some blossom with ecstasy, and the tragedy of a lover.Ashaki Cash Nehisi
