Yet they cannot be protected from the world forever • Even as Jonah becomes a successful young tenor, the opera arena remains fixated on his race. Ruth turns her back on classical music and disappears, dedicating herself to activism and a new relationship. As the years pass, Joseph – the middle child, a pianist and our narrator – must battle not just to remain connected to his siblings, but to forge a future of his own • This is a story of the tragedy of race in America, told through the lives and choices of one family caught on the cusp of identities
