It revolves around Kenneth B. Harper, a newly graduated Black physician returning to his hometown of Central City in Georgia, where he hopes to establish a successful medical practice while navigating the complexities of race relations in the Jim Crow era. The narrative explores themes of ambition, racial identity, and the quest for respect in a society deeply entrenched in prejudice. At the start of the novel, we meet Kenneth Harper, who is filled with optimism as he prepares to begin his medical practice after years of hard work and education. The opening passages detail his meticulous attention to setting up his office and reflect on his journey from school to battlefields in France during World War I. As he reminisces about his past, his brother Bob expresses skepticism about Kenneth’s optimism regarding the treatment they will receive in their racially divided community. Kenneth is determined to make a difference in Central City, yet he inadvertently faces challenges from the legacy of racism and the societal expectations tied to their identities. The juxtaposition between Kenneth's hopeful ambitions and Bob's disillusionment sets the stage for conflict and introspection as Kenneth aims to carve out a place for himself as a Black doctor in a predominantly white world.
