More about the book

Exploring themes of racial and social identity, the narrative intertwines the lives of the white Carterets and the mixed-race Millers, revealing deep-rooted issues of racism and injustice in the South. With its candid portrayal of the Wilmington Race Riot and its aftermath, the book reflects Chesnutt's shift towards more direct political commentary. Once controversial, it is now celebrated as a significant work in the evolution of Civil Rights literature. This edition is printed on premium acid-free paper, enhancing its lasting value.
