In the winter of 1926, when everybody everywhere sees nothing but good things ahead, Joe Trace, middle-aged door-to-door salesman of Cleopatra beauty products, shoots his teenage lover to death. At the funeral, Joe’s wife, Violet, attacks the girl’s corpse. This passionate, profound story of love and obsession brings us back and forth in time, as a narrative is assembled from the emotions, hopes, fears, and deep realities of black urban life.

可能是我的偏見，男性角色一開始solo，我就想快點讀完，情節抓住就過，而敘述者一轉迴女性角色，大段大段對話和獨白都恨不能刻進心裏。

评分The traumatic aftermath of slavery. So heart-rending when the narrative slips back into history. But is it retrospection that heals? Violet's reconciliation with Joe testifies to the theraputic signification of accepting the brokeness of others (Felice's story of the stolen ring enables a negotiation between the husband and wife's views of Dorcas).
