| Summary | "Black is White" by George Barr McCutcheon is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story begins with two elderly men, Danbury Dawes and Joseph Riggs, who are anxiously awaiting news from a blue envelope that contains a wireless message from James Brood, their old friend. This mysterious envelope sets the stage for an exploration of past friendships and familial tensions as Frederic Brood, James’ estranged son, navigates his complex relationship with his father and the sudden arrival of a new stepmother. At the start of the novel, the two old friends reflect on their adventurous past and their connection to James Brood, who has been out of their lives for years. They are particularly concerned about what the message might contain regarding the state of affairs on the ocean, unaware that it will lead to a dramatic revelation: James has married again after many years. As Frederic learns of this news, anger and feelings of abandonment surface, particularly as he grapples with his fraught relationship with his father, who seems indifferent to his existence. This opening sets the tone for a tale steeped in emotional conflict, self-discovery, and the dynamics of family relationships against the backdrop of their shared history.
