来自《纽约时报》畅销书《母亲们》的作者，这是一部令人惊叹的新小说，讲述的是一对双胞胎姐妹在童年时期形影不离，最终选择生活在两个截然不同的世界里，一个是黑人，一个是白人。
这对双胞胎姐妹永远长得一模一样。16岁的时候，他们一起在南方的一个小黑人社区里长大，然后离家出走。长大后，不仅仅是他们的日常生活方式不同了，还有一切:他们的家庭，他们的社区，他们的种族身份。许多年后，姐妹俩的一个和她的黑人女儿住在她曾经试图逃离的同一个南方城镇。另一个则秘密地冒充着白人，她的白人丈夫对她的过去一无所知。然而，即使相隔如此之远，谎言如此之多，双胞胎的命运仍然交织在一起。当他们自己女儿的故事情节交汇时，下一代会发生什么？
从美国南部到加州，从20世纪50年代到90年代，Brit Bennett将这个家庭的几代人、几条线索交织在一起，写出了一个既引人入胜、又饱含情感的家庭故事，同时也是对美国历史的精彩探索。除了种族问题之外，消失的那一半还考虑了过去对一个人的决定、欲望和期望的持久影响，并探索了人们有时会感到被迫活在非他们的起源的多种原因和领域。
From The New York Times-bestselling author of The Mothers, a stunning new novel about twin sisters, inseparable as children, who ultimately choose to live in two very different worlds, one black and one white.
The Vignes twin sisters will always be identical. But after growing up together in a small, southern black community and running away at age sixteen, it's not just the shape of their daily lives that is different as adults, it's everything: their families, their communities, their racial identities. Many years later, one sister lives with her black daughter in the same southern town she once tried to escape. The other secretly passes for white, and her white husband knows nothing of her past. Still, even separated by so many miles and just as many lies, the fates of the twins remain intertwined. What will happen to the next generation, when their own daughters' storylines intersect?
Weaving together multiple strands and generations of this family, from the Deep South to California, from the 1950s to the 1990s, Brit Bennett produces a story that is at once a riveting, emotional family story and a brilliant exploration of the American history of passing. Looking well beyond issues of race, The Vanishing Half considers the lasting influence of the past as it shapes a person's decisions, desires, and expectations, and explores some of the multiple reasons and realms in which people sometimes feel pulled to live as something other than their origins.
