více...Duff Anderson, a Negro railroad worker, meets Josie Dawson, a Baptist minister's daughter, at a church social in an Alabama town. They fall in love in spite of Anderson's unwillingness to accept responsibility and in spite of Josie's middle-class father's objections to Anderson. They go to nearby Birmingham, and there Anderson visits his father, a sick, bad-tempered alcoholic who owes his life to Lee, the woman who lives with him. Anderson also visits his illegitimate son, who has been deserted by his mother and left with a woman who is reluctantly taking care of him. Anderson and Josie marry, and although Josie wants the child to join them, Anderson refuses. He takes a job in a sawmill but is fired because he will not defer to his bigoted white employers; he advises the other millhands to organize a union. His father-in-law helps him get a job in a filling station, but vigilantes threaten to wreck the station unless he leaves. Frustrated, Anderson strikes out at his pregnant wife, claiming she does not know what it is like to be a Negro because she has never had to live like one. Once more he visits his father, watches him die, and observes Lee's terrible loneliness. Finally, he takes his son and returns home to Josie, determined to raise his family in dignity and peace.
