H.W. Mitchell is a storyteller, researcher, and keeper of memory whose work illuminates the untold histories of African American families shaped by resilience, love, and survival. Drawing from years of genealogical research, oral traditions, and archival records, Mitchell weaves narratives that connect the past to the present while honoring the ancestors who endured enslavement, displacement, and loss.
Her writing blends heart and history, inviting readers to reflect on the legacy of names, memory, and the stories we inherit. The Names in the Flame is the first book in a planned trilogy that traces one family's journey from enslavement in Virginia to generations still carrying their light today.
Mitchell lives in Ann Arbor, Michigan, where she continues documenting family stories, cultivating her garden, and creating worlds where memory refuses to fade.

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. On Beaver Creek Plantation in Virginia, enslaved men and women lit the world with their craft. They were chandeliers and candlemakers, bending wax and flame into beauty even as their families were torn apart by cotton and complexion. Names were lost, traded, and miswritten-yet carried forward in whispers, muslin stitches, and the glow of memory.A century later in Bluefield, West Virginia, five-year-old Cornelia listens on the porch as her Big Mama tells the stories that refuse to be erased. Afternoon after afternoon, the past is unrolled: the forced march to Mississippi, the candles poured in the coldest winter, the pine cone carried home from a place that smelled like iron.Then Big Mama's voice goes quiet, and the house must learn to breathe again. Grief gathers the family close, around food and song, around a typewriter meant to hold the stories steady, around the Mosaic Candle that keeps its flame whether lit or not. At the center is Cornelia, a child both broken and bright, learning what it means to cry, to remember, and to carry names forward.The Names in the Flame is a lyrical standalone novel of ancestry, loss, and love. It honors the chandeliers and candlemakers of Beaver Creek and the descendants who keep their light alive. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability. N° de réf. du vendeur 9798232165581
