Mentally, he travels through time. Physically, he travels through space. The characters come from his private heritage and public life. He's publicly Adam and privately African-American. He has a history that he is just beginning to understand which alters the world around him. His story reflects the duality of being thought of as Black or White. Joining him on his voyage is Eden Negress aka Miss Thing whose hidden power jeopardizes their date in Crackerville.
