In this provocative satire, renowned African-American novelist explores the deep-seated racism and the enduring impact of slavery on white America's psyche through the story of Mitchell Pierce, a disillusioned New York ad executive facing a crumbling marriage and a disconnected family life. His world shifts dramatically when he discovers that his wife, Tam, is carrying twins fathered by two different men, leading him on a quest to confront the young man, Cooley, who has connections to their household. This modern-day fable cleverly inverts themes of oppression and miscegenation, highlighting the complexities of identity and societal norms.
