In “The House of Eve,” 15-year-old Ruby Pearsall is on track to becoming the first in her family to attend college, in spite of having a mother more interested in keeping a man than raising her daughter. But a taboo love affair threatens to pull her back down into the poverty and desperation that has been passed onto her like a birthright, according to the OCFPL book description.

Johnson is an award-winning author of four novels, including “Yellow Wife.” Her accolades include the National Book Club Award, the Phillis Wheatley Book Award, and the USA Best Book Award for Best Fiction.

Originally from Philadelphia, she currently lives near Richmond, Va., with her husband and three children.
