| This emotionally gripping novel is a landmark in black literary history and has influenced a generation of writers during the Harlem Renaissance. The first fictional memoir ever written by a black, it has also given white readers a startling new perspective on their own culture, revealing to many the double standard of racial identity imposed on black Americans. Narrated by a mulatto man whose light skin allows him to "pass" for white, the novel describes a pilgrimage through America's color lines at the turn of the century.
