Contact: 413-586-4235, 247 Main Street, Northampton, MA 01060 Truth "Truth reads like a fast-paced poetic memoir, telling the tale of the abolitionist heroine with innocence and accuracy. In a feat of literary ventriloquism, Jacqueline Sheehan imagines the interior life of Sojourner Truth, reaching beyond the heroine’s social and political persona to create a searing novel that infuses the historical atrocities of the 1800’s with psychological speculation of who Sojourner Truth really was. Jacqueline Sheehan puts the story back in Sojourner’s voice.” Food for Thought Books, Amherst MA Jacqueline Sheehan, a member of the Sojourner Truth Statue Committee, lives in Florence, MA and is a practicing psychologist, essayist, and short story writer.
