All Aunt Hagar's Children (2006) is a collection of short stories by African-American author Edward P. Jones; it was his first book after winning the 2004 Pulitzer Prize for The Known World. The collection of 14 stories centers on African Americans in Washington D.C. during the 20th century.
The second story of each collection is about the schooling of some type and is told in the first person. Penny, the grocer, is introduced in "The Store," in Lost in the City, and she shows up in the title story of All Aunt Hagar's Children. In both of those stories, the narrator is a first-person man, but he has no name, and so on.
Aunt Hagar's Blues", variously known as "Aunt Hagar's Children" or "Aunt Hagar's Children's Blues", is a 1920 blues song which has since become a jazz standard. It was written by W. C. Handy and J Tim Brymn .
The fourteen stories of All Aunt Hagar's Children revisit not merely the city of Washington but the fourteen stories of Lost in the City. Each new story—and many of them, in their completeness, feel like fully realized little novels—is connected in the same sequence, as if umbilically, to the corresponding story in the first book.
