Angela must go on to navigate the treacherous terrain of womanhood alone and struggle with her issues of maternal abandonment, while growing up in the chaotic socio-economic climate of 1980s New York. Chambers goes on to explore her inspiration for the novel and shares memories of meeting Mohammad Ali and her own father who also was a magician. Also in this interview Chambers reads aloud from her work.
