Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Set in 1920s Harlem, the narrative follows the reunion of childhood friends Clare Kendry and Irene Redfield, exploring their complex fascination with each other's lives. Told from Irene's perspective, the story delves into themes of identity and race as Irene, a black woman who can pass for white, reconnects with Clare, who hides her ancestry from her white husband, John. The practice of "racial passing" serves as a crucial element, driving the tension and events that unfold between the two women.
