Peter Champneys grows up in the South Carolina countryside with little but a promise and his gift for drawing. The novel follows him through hardship and struggle to the studios of the art world and recognition as a painter, and to the question of what success is worth and whom it is for. Its portrayal of Black Carolinians reflects the attitudes of 1920.
