Shilk is a professor of classics at the university and the dean of the college. The reason why the school is getting better and better depends to a large extent on Shilk's leadership. Shilk himself is also highly respected, with a kind wife and three children, and a high school status, and people are willing to respect him. But in an ordinary class, Hilke used the word "ghost", which was criticized by his classmates. The school leadership also held a meeting for this purpose. People thought the word was racially discriminatory. His black colleagues did not. He stood up to support him, so Hilke lost his job. When he returned home that day, his wife died in his arms, and the child left him.
In fact, Hilke itself is a secret. Shilk is a white-skinned black man, which is very special. That is to say, Shilk was born in a black family, but his parents are all light-dark skinned, and his brother and sister are also dark-skinned. Shilk later met a writer friend, and in his narration, Shilk's life was slowly told.
In high school, Shilk was the top student in his class, and Shilk was very good at wrestling. He was a rare good seed in the eyes of the coach, and his future prospects were unlimited. However, when he returned home, his father was extremely disgusted with Hilke becoming a professional wrestler, and his father then went to work on the train and died on the spot on the train. Silke met a Danish and Dutch girl who was the first woman in his life. They met in the library. They had the same taste and lived in harmony. The two fell in love. Later, Shilk took the girl home to see her mother. After some conversation, the girl found that Shilk was a child of a black family and left Shilk, even though they were about to get married. This relationship was over. After the fight, Silk Lake hoped that others would know that he was of black blood. He concealed the situation of his blood and claimed that both his parents were dead. He was Jewish and had no brother or sister. Since then, Silk and the family have completely cut off contact.
Shilk has become an old man at this time, just after losing his job, one day, he went to the post office to pick up a letter from his sister, and he met another important woman in his life, Fornia. On the way home, Shilk found that Fonia's car was broken and parked on the side of the road, so Shilk took the initiative to take Fonia home. Just in front of the house, Fonia invited Shilk to sit in the house, which Shilk never thought of, and the two also started this evening love.
Fonia, a tragic woman, was sexually abused by her father since she was a child, and her mother did not care for him, and she ran away from the family at the age of 14. Shilk learned later that Fonia's husband was a lunatic. He participated in the Vietnam War, and his two children died unexpectedly again. Fonia escaped and now lives alone. She has to work two jobs a day, milk cows, have a place to live, clean up, and send and receive emails. She is really a hard worker. And Shilk is not much better. He is old and has no insurance, lost his job, and was stigmatized and discriminated against by others. The key is that he is black, and he is not even more willing to clarify. In this way, Silk fell madly in love with Fornia, the two had sex together, went to the theater together, and went to eat together. Silke's writer friends are witnesses. One morning, Shilk took Fonia home. Fornia’s husband drove over from across the road. He originally thought that they would die together, but Shilk turned and overturned the car. Shilk and Fornia were killed on the spot. Death, just like that, left this world that was a bit miserable for them.
