This book is about a Black man's experience of reading Mark Twain's classic Adventures of Huckleberry Finn for the first time while in graduate school. The story captures the author's emotional struggle with Twain's use of the racial epithet more than 200 times in the text. This is a courageous memoir that wrestles with the historic stain of racism and the ongoing impact of racist language in postmodern society. The book is about Harris' flashbacks, conversations, and dilemmas spawned by use of the epithet in a classroom setting where the author was the only Black person.  

Daisy Miller is a novella by Henry James that first appeared in Cornhill Magazine in June–July 1878, and in book form the following year.

In Four Meetings and Daisy Miller, an American master sketches a series of deft psychological portraits that revive a now vanished world of Americans in Europe. In both stories, longtime American expatriates form memorable ties with passionate young travelers who fall prey to their own romantic fantasies.
