This book is at once the story of a "white" mixed-race woman in a "black" world and the story of a "black" mixed-race woman seeking forbidden love in a "white" world. But the story is not a question of white blood or black blood, man's blood or woman's blood. Rather it is the blood of a passion for living, the passion that runs in the blood of those who are capable of loving life itself.
