Kingsblood Royal is a thought-provoking novel by Sinclair Lewis that delves into the complexities of race and identity in America during the early 20th century. The story revolves around Neil Kingsblood, a well-to-do white man who discovers that he is of mixed heritage, with African ancestry. This revelation shakes the foundation of his life, forcing him to confront the entrenched racism and social dynamics of his community.

Readers are drawn to Kingsblood Royal for its bold exploration of race and its impact on personal and social identity. This book serves not only as a mirror reflecting the prejudices of its time but also as a lens through which to view contemporary issues of race and identity.
