Life as a slave is quite unpredictable, misery and pain is the deal of the day especially amongst the black females, this of course includes the mulattos who were generally seen as a curse, an abomination by their African mothers and some were thrown away after birth. But Iyila, being quite fortunate, was kept until she turned six before being abandoned by her family. She gradually grows into a woman, passed on by different owners until she is finally sold to Mr John - the richest plantation owner in the whole of the South.

Which presents another delicate problem, dropping a yet to answer question - will Iyila ever let go of her hate for the white folks who have caused her nothing but pain? Or will his looks and opinions weaken her stony heart? Find out in this thrilling book .... MULATTO (Iyila)
