Nella Larsen: Rebecca Hall Presents: Passing, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

Actress and filmmaker Rebecca Hall presents Passing, Nella Larsen's classic novel of the Harlem Renaissance.

After a chance reunion in a Chicago hotel, Irene Redfield discovers that her childhood friend Clare Kendry has been hiding her Black heritage and passing as white. Though Clare has tried to leave her past behind, the two women are drawn into one another's orbit, shifting--sometimes deliberately, sometimes not--between racial identities and communities, often lingering in the uneasy spaces between friend, enemy, and maybe something more. Passing is a Jazz Age masterpiece.
