They were New Orleans' gens de couleur libre- the copper-skinned half-castes who lived recklessly and loved passionately, trapped in a world between black and white.
Marcel-the young, blue-eyed scholar, sensitive, and longing always for Paris. Marie-his breathtakingly beautiful sister, cursed with the ability to pass for white. Christophe- novelist and teacher, the idol of al young gens. Anna Bella-light in skin, African in feature, chosen for the white man.
