Girl Without a Shirt

About the author

Christine Jones grew up in the Bedford Stuyvesant section of Brooklyn, New York. Like many young women during those times, she failed to prepare a plan for her life. It was this failure that led to her being a single mother living on welfare. Had it not been for the fact that she wanted a better life, she might have allowed herself to believe her situation could not get better. She would have taken that lethal step into what she terms as being the 'Ghetto's Poison' - a poison that allows one to foolishly believe the hype that says, "Where and how you live will define where you will go in life." Instead, she strived forward, while helplessly watching many of her friends as they took that frightful plunge into the Ghetto's Poison. As she watched, a fire burned deep into her soul. It was that fire that prompted her to write novels, Ghetto's Poison and My Sister's Place.
