With Love from Harlem: A Novel of Hazel Scott
$18.63 online at Bookshop.org
Harlem, 1943. At just twenty-three, Hazel Scott is a jazz prodigy, glamorous film star, and fierce civil-rights advocate, breaking barriers and refusing to play by the rules. Then Adam Clayton Powell Jr. walks into her life: Harlem's most electrifying preacher-turned-politician, as bold and unyielding as Hazel, charismatic, powerful, and married. Their decades-long relationship propels them into a political and cultural revolution. As Hazel's star rises and Adam takes the national stage in Congress, the couple becomes the toast of the country. When the affair becomes marriage, ego, ambition, and sacrifice turn the glamorous facade into a battlefield. Forced to choose between music and family, Hazel must decide what she is willing to lose and what she refuses to give up.
