Acclaimed artist Faith Ringgold seamless weaves fiction, autobiography, and African American history into a magical story that resonates with the universal wish for freedom, and will be cherished for generations.

Cassie Louise Lightfoot has a dream: to be free to go wherever she wants for the rest of her life. One night, up on “tar beach,” the rooftop of her family’s Harlem apartment building, her dreams come true. The stars lift her up, and she flies over the city, claiming the buildings and the city as her own.

As Cassie learns, anyone can fly. “All you need is somewhere to go you can’t get to any other way. The next thing you know, you’re flying among the stars.”

绘本《沥青海滩》的故事灵感来自林戈尔德以拼布被子的艺术形式创作的系列故事“桥上的女人”。故事中，女孩凯西从屋顶起飞，她在城市上空飞行，并拥有了她飞越过的大桥和每一栋建筑，而她的家人和邻居们在屋顶上吃饭和打牌。
