Description

In the book one person, Negro Alexander, is very important but never appears in the story. But .he is the only real person in the book - all others are fictional. There are only two things known about Negro Alexander; he was alive in 1828 and he was a slave at that time in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. In the book the inventory in which Alexander is listed he is named Negro Alexander. The inventory, the house, and the cistern are all real. The town, Lenoir, and all of the characters are fictional. The crux of the book is the account of an attempt to find out more about Alexander by the young woman who purchased the house where he served and once may have lived. The house is one of the oldest in the country, dating from the 1780's. The woman, Jan, is a professional musician who plays with an orchestra in Baltimore. While in the house she is given a document, an inventory of personal property written in 1828. It is the inventory of the property of the man who owned Alexander and who died in 1827. It proves Alexander's existence.
