● 內文簡介

A white man and a black woman discover the depth of their differences-and an unexpected bond-in this compelling urban drama.

Edmund, long-divorced and lonely, offers shelter to Careese, who is temporarily temporarily homeless. Good intentions on both sides give way to mutual distrust and resentment, but similar sorrows connect them. What begins as a clash of language and culture turns into something else entirely.

Blunt yet compassionate, Dark and Light cuts to the bone in dissecting Edmund's and Careese's hidden prejudices, strengths and faults. As their attitudes, this seemingly simple story becomes a complex exploration of America 's great unhealed wound.
