Strivers Row

Rev. Jonah Dove returns home to World War II-era Harlem, troubled by his history of passing as a white man in college, and finds his life colliding with that of Malcolm Little, a teenage hustler from Michigan who is destined to rename himself Malcolm X.

First sentence: He thought about the rabbits sometimes, lying awake at night in the little room in Ella's house, under the eaves.
