Description
"[Presents] two intersecting story lines.In one narrative, a penny-pinching immigrant landlord strives to become a rich investor and then discards his black lover for a wealthy white woman. In the other, we witness the innocent yet dangerous love affair between a strong, pragmatic, 'gentle giant' sort of immigrant and a vivacious mulatto woman who both live in a tenement owned by the landlord" --, Back cover.
