More about the book
The narrative unfolds in the Five Points district of New York City during the tumultuous years of 1857-1863, as seen through the eyes of Theo, an orphan navigating life between her Black and Irish grandmothers. Throughout her youth, she witnesses significant cultural developments, including the birth of tap dance and the impact of P.T. Barnum's museum, alongside the chaos of the draft riots. The story also explores the evolving attitudes of white America towards race and slavery amid the growing national divide leading to war.
