This powerful novella explores the complexities of racial identity and societal norms in 1920s Harlem. It follows the intertwined lives of two light-skinned African American women, Irene and Clare, who "pass" for white in different contexts. As Clare becomes increasingly drawn back to her Black heritage, the story delves into themes of race, identity, privilege, and the tensions of living between two worlds, culminating in a dramatic and tragic conclusion.
