Sinopsis
Lincoln Agrippa Daily, known on the 1920s Marseilles waterfront as “Banjo,” prowls the rough waterfront bistros with his drifter friends, drinking, looking for women, playing music, fighting, loving, talking about their homes in Africa, the West Indies, or the American South, and about being black.
