When the Fog Clears and the Sky Opens

Sherina Joseph was born in Haverhill, Massachusetts and grew up as a nomad.

She has lived in four different states, Harlem, New York, Sunshine state of

Florida and the Brotherly love of Pennsylvania. Raised by a single mother of

three, Sherina was the middle child and the only girl. Rapidly learning the

ropes of life, she was self-adequate, and knew far more than most for her

age. Impacted by broken homes, short-term homes, and displacements,

adjustments were brutal and incomprehensible for Sherina. Bone chilling and

disturbing, this book is coming-of-age story about domestic violence, alcohol

abuse and vivid real-life nightmares.
