  • 'the buckle end of the belt escaped accidentally from Bill Lamb's clenched fist and cut Beka on the left corner of her mouth' - Chapter 4
  • 'the scar browned over but remained visible' - Chapter 4

She had curly hair that was usually straitened

  • 'Twice a month she sat in Miss Doodie's kitchen, which smelled of stale fried beans and burnt rice, to have her hair hotcombed' - Chapter 4
  • ' "Clearing the tangles out of Beka's hair takes nearly an hour every morning, Bill." ' - Chapter 4

Her breasts were not even
