Light-skinned Black woman Irene Redfield encounters an old childhood friend - Clare - who is now "passing" as a White woman. Clare is married to a racist White man, who doesn't know she has African American blood. In spite of the danger of being found out by her husband and society at large, she finds herself helplessly drawn to Irene's world....

Passing is a fascinating listening experience on many simultaneous levels.

Featured Article: The Best Audiobooks Under 4 Hours


Time—there's never enough of it in a day. Most of us wish we had more time to get things done, or more hours to do the things we enjoy—reading a book, for instance. That's what makes audiobooks an excellent option for busy people: they're perfect for multitasking. Many audiobooks are several hours long, but if you're in the mood to listen to a story in one sitting, there are plenty of shorter audiobooks to be found. Want to fit a stellar audiobook into your busy schedule? All of these listens come in just under four hours, so you can enjoy them in one or two sessions.

This book was nothing I thought it would be and very well written. I’m glad I brought the book & listened to it at the same time. Fantastic story. Hated the ending.

Pass on Passing (Don’t)

The narration was excellent! The Author’s descriptions of people and places sparked vivid and good imagination.
The story is a real description of what took place in America in generations past and is still relevant today. It’s about those who have black genealogy but “look” white and classify themselves as such, living with the pretence of it, and bearing their own inner pain and identity confusion.
Beyond the book to today, the irony shows up if the ‘white’ ones dare to attend family reunions organized by broad-minded or diverse relatives, where all colors may be present, like a rainbow!
An excellent book!

The reality of color coding in American society

There was so much tension in the book, marvelous and tight. The kind that makes each character simultaneously sympathetic and unsympathetic. There is much to unpack here. Highly recommend.

I liked this book it was hard to follow because one was reading for both characters But, Claire and her husband got on my nerves. So much, His attitude towards black women made me want to DNF this book, I felt like both women lost themselves in order to please a man.

Racist Literature 😒

I’ve read a few authors from the Harlem Renaissance period and I have to admit that I never really heard of Nella Larsen. An excellent book. I wish she had more content. This is indeed a subject in the Black community that still comes up to this day. I grew up in the south and a lot of my older relatives were very color conscience.

Excellent Book
