My Life in Black and White

A mysterious story of lust, treachery, violent death and reincarnation. Bess was born the first time in Louisiana as the younger daughter of slaves who were emancipated a few years later. She grew up to be an intelligent, adventurous young woman for whom freedom was everything but of particular importance was the freedom to choose what she did and what she didn't believe in. And she chose to reject other people's convictions of a spiritual nature since, it seemed to her, none of them could be proven by the scientific thinking she found so important. To her these philosophies amounted to nothing more than'silly ideas'. However, as a result of her fun-loving and sometimes daringly amorous life style, she ended up getting trapped in various other people's belief systems with hellish results and no obvious way out. Doomed to keep reliving the same mistakes in unending and agonizing reincarnations she finally stumbled on the opportunity to escape and find true freedom, freedom of the spirit. But has she learned life's lessons well enough to be make good use of the chance now that it's finally here?
