A tragic story of racism and the coming technological changes of the 1930s, Passing tells the story of a white woman named Nella Larsen living in Harlem during that time period. Towards the end of her life, she wrote a memoir called Passing which explores how she felt like an outcast because she was not classified as either black or white. The protagonist's father is unemployed and under-educated, while her mother is a university-educated upper middle class woman. When Nella was born, she was loved but her parents did not have the money to treat her health problems which led to her being in and out of hospitals for most of her childhood and adolescence.
