This semi-autobiographical tale is set in 1967. A white family from a notoriously racist neighborhood in the suburbs and a black family from its poorest ward cross Houston's color line, overcoming humiliation, degradation, and violence to win the freedom of five black college students unjustly charged with the murder of a policeman.

 

这部半自传式的小说是N.Powell的代表作之一。故事发生在1967年。一个白人家庭来自于一个臭名昭著的种族主义社区,另一个来自于最贫穷病房的黑人家庭,他们穿越休斯顿的种族隔离线,克服了屈辱,堕落和暴力,帮助五名黑人大学生摆脱杀害一名警察的不公正指控,重新获得自由。
