Passing is Nella Larsen's second novel, written in 1929.The main character of the story is Irene Redfield, a lady prominently ensconced in Harlem's vibrant society of the 1920s. Her charmed existence, however, is shaken up by a chance encounter with Clare Kendry, a childhood friend that has been "passing for white" and hiding her true Negro identity from everyone, including her racist husband. Clare's actions provoke both ladies to confront the hazards of public and private deception.It was made into a film in 2020, premiering at Sundance 2021, where it was the directorial debut of Rebecca Hall and starred Ruth Negga as Clare, Tessa Thompson as Irene, Andre Holland as Irene's husband Brian, Alexander Skarsgård as Clare's husband John, and Bill Camp as Hugh.This work features the following tropes:
