This is a story of a clash of two generations; a discordance of two personalities; a subliminal chord of racism, all playing out in the individualism of two lovers and the man’s mother. Eddie is the man; Flora is his fiancee; Mrs. Kate is Eddie’s mother, all three engage in a vortex of drama, each ruled by the emotive factors of their own generation, but Mrs. Kate is engrossed in a stereotype she is raised with as a child, a stereotype that eventually proves to be false, for, in the end, love embedded in passion and empathy conquers and envelopes the evil of stereotypes, shining forth like the blazing sun of the summer.
