Story
The Vignes twin sisters will always be identical. But after growing up together in a small, Southern black community and running away at age 16, it's not just the shape of their daily lives that is different as adults, it's everything: their families, their communities, their racial identities. Ten years later, one sister lives with her black daughter in the same Southern town she once tried to escape. The other secretly passes for white and her white husband knows nothing of her past.

Story
It is the last season of high school life for Nadia Turner, a rebellious, grief-stricken, 17-year-old beauty. Mourning her own mother's recent suicide, she takes up with the local pastor's son. Luke Sheppard is 21, a former football star whose injury has reduced him to waiting tables at a diner. They are young; it's not serious. But the pregnancy that results from this teen romance—and the subsequent cover-up—will have an impact that goes far beyond their youth.

Story
A darkly funny short story about one woman’s reflections on the routes she’s taken through life and the detours she’s made along the way. Doubts and guilt swirl through her mind as she rides the train to her fertility appointment. Each stop stirs up introspective thoughts on her marriage, the loss of her baby, and the lover who got away—contemplations that push her ever closer to wondering if she’s made the right decisions.

Story
Generación tras generación, la comunidad negra del pueblo de Mallard, en Luisiana, ha intentado aclarar el tono de su piel favoreciendo los matrimonios mixtos. Las inseparables gemelas Desirée y Stella Vignes, con su color níveo, sus ojos castaños y su cabello ondulado, son un buen ejemplo de ello. Tan distintas y tan iguales, decidieron huir juntas del diminuto pueblo creyendo que también podrían escapar de su sangre. Años después y ante la mirada atónita de todos, Desireé regresa acompañada de una niña negra como el carbón.

Story
En international bestseller om at finde sin vej i verden i jagten på det gode liv, ægte kærlighed og en identitet, man selv har valgt. "Det der skiller os" er den amerikanske forfatter Brit Bennetts rørende page-turner om familierelationer, kærlighed og raceforskel. Samtidig er den et fremragende portræt af det amerikanske samfund fra 1950’erne til 1990’erne - og en roman, der med dyb empati udforsker vores forhold til fortiden, hvordan den former os, hvordan vi holder fast i den, og hvordan vi forsøger at undslippe den.

Story
Ein kleiner Ort im ländlichen Louisiana. Seine afroamerikanischen Bewohner blicken mit Stolz auf eine lange Tradition und Geschichte, und vor allem auf ihre Kinder, die von Generation zu Generation hellhäutiger zu werden scheinen. Stella und Desiree etwa, Zwillingsschwestern von ganz unterschiedlichem Wesen. Aber in einem sind sie sich einig: Hier sehen sie keine Zukunft für sich. In New Orleans trennen sich ihre Wege. Denn Stella tritt unbemerkt in eine nur weißen Amerikanern vorbehaltene Welt - und bricht alle Brücken hinter sich ab.

Story
As irmãs Vignes são gêmeas idênticas. Quando, aos 16 anos, resolvem fugir de casa, elas não fazem ideia de como isso vai alterar suas trajetórias. Mais de uma década depois, uma delas volta para a cidade natal—uma comunidade negra no sul dos Estados Unidos obcecada por novas gerações de pele cada vez mais clara—e o choque não poderia ser maior. Porque ela não apenas chega sem a irmã, mas com uma criança. Uma criança de pele muito escura.
