The bestselling, critically acclaimed author of The Space Between Us and The World We Found deftly explores issues of race, class, privilege, and power and asks us to consider uncomfortable moral questions in this probing, ambitious, emotionally wrenching novel of two families—one black, one white—now updated to include an essay detailing the story behind the book, an in-depth reader’s guide, and an excerpt from the author’s newest novel. “The writing is clear, nuanced, and gorgeous...eloquently and heartbreakingly homes in on America’s problem with race, entitlement, and class, and uncovers all the compromises we get to make—but only if we are lucky enough to be born in the right neighborhood.”— Boston Globe
