The narrative centers on Selina Boyce, a second-generation immigrant from Barbados, grappling with her identity amidst cultural conflicts in 1930s New York City. Struggling with her family's differing views on the American Dream and societal racism, Selina faces the challenge of belonging to neither her Barbadian roots nor American culture. Her journey reflects the complexities of immigrant identity, as she seeks to forge her own path, rejecting imposed ethnic norms and prejudices, ultimately realizing that self-discovery requires distancing from her surroundings.
