A proposito di questo titolo

Quicksand, a poignant novel by Nella Larsen, delves into the life of Helga Crane, a mixed-race schoolteacher in the American South during the 1920s. As the story unfolds, Helga makes a bold decision to abandon her teaching career and journey north to reconnect with her roots in Chicago. This semi-autobiographical tale captures Helgas tumultuous quest for identity, reflecting Larsens own experiences of navigating the complexities of her mixed heritage amid the pervasive racism of the era. Published in 1928, the novel is now in the public domain, bringing to life the rich struggles and triumphs of a generation. (Introduction by Elizabeth Klett)
