Set in the antebellum South, the story follows a slave owner and his African-American butler who, after a night of heavy drinking, hilariously switch places in each other's beds to avoid confronting their wives. This unexpected encounter leads to the birth of Andrew Hawkins, whose life unfolds in a unique narrative. The novel explores themes of identity, race, and social dynamics, blending humor with deeper reflections on the complexities of their intertwined lives.
