The Italian phrase Mai due senza tre--"never two without three"--forms the basis of Andrea Lee's novel of betrayal, which reveals a trio caught in the grip of desire, deception, and remorse.--From publisher description.
This novel, in the words of its title character, is set in "the hermetic world of the old-fashioned black bourgeoisie--a group largely unknown to other Americans, which has carried on with cautious pomp for years in eastern cities and suburbs, using its considerable funds to attempt poignant imitations of high society, acting with genuine gallantry in the struggle for civil rights, and finally producing a generation of children educated in newly integrated schools and impatient to escape the outworn rituals of their parents."
Exploring themes of identity, desire, and self-discovery, this collection of short stories delves into the complexities of colliding cultures. Andrea Lee's writing is both brilliant and outrageous, offering readers a thought-provoking examination of the human experience through diverse perspectives.
