TERRY GROSS, HOST:
This is FRESH AIR. A research study involving a chimpanzee raised in a Black family was the subject of the 2016 novel "We Love You, Charlie Freeman" by Kaitlyn Greenidge. Her second novel, "Libertie," which was just published, is a foray into historical fiction. Greenidge is a contributing writer for The New York Times. Our book critic Maureen Corrigan has this review of "Libertie."
MAUREEN CORRIGAN, BYLINE: "Libertie," a new novel by Kaitlyn Greenidge, is inspired by the life of Susan Smith McKinney Steward, the third African American woman to earn a medical degree in this country. After the Civil War, Dr. McKinney Steward opened her own practice in Brooklyn and co-founded the Brooklyn Women's Homoeopathic Hospital and Dispensary. Dr. McKinney Steward was an exceptional woman, a pioneer. But of course, it can be hard living in the shadow of such a path breaker, especially when you yourself are drawn to the simpler pleasures of the conventional. That's the predicament of the narrator of this novel, who's given the magnificent name of Libertie by her mother, a Black female doctor modeled on Dr. McKinney-Steward. Ironically, the liberty our narrator most fiercely desires is freedom from her remarkable mother's grand expectations.
