Light-skinned black woman Irene Redfield meets an old childhood friend - Claire - who is now "passing" as a white woman... Claire is married to a racist white man, who doesn't know she has African American blood. Despite the danger of being found out by her husband and society at large she finds herself helplessly drawn to Irene's world. An absolutely fascinating listening experience on many levels simultaneously.©2017 Audioliterature (P)2017 Audioliterature African American Classics Genre Fiction Historical Fiction Literary Fiction World Literature

Loved the story but the narrator simply wasn't passing as the characters in the rich storyline.
