Beschreibung
In the New Orleans of the '30s and '40s, things-and people-are supposed to be black and white. Cille and her light-skinned brothers are neither. They are "e;the color that looks not-quite white next to a white man, and not-quite colored next to a colored man. It was a non-color in a place where you had to be something."e; The daughter of a dreamy alcoholic father who introduces Cille to "e;Mr. Keats and Mr. Shelley"e; but who exits her life too soon, and a mother who teaches her children not the love of God but the fear of him, young Cille struggles for balance and identity in a world where race and class define people for life, and where her brothers destroy themselves beating against the bars of the cage of a divided culture."e;A Place Without Twilight is the best novel of 1958, and Peter Feibleman the most exciting discovery."e;-NEW YORK HERALD TRIBUNE"e;An artistic achievement....An ardent new talent telling in fine, sensuous prose the story of an inbetween Alice in a wonderland of blacks and whites."e;-NEW YORK TIMES"e;Engrossing, brilliant, moving....
