The nature of the time travel is never fully explained, although its mechanics, and some of their pretty-scary implications are explores. The real focus is on the experience of a modern black woman trapped in a slave state in the early 1800s, and of the pervasive nature of the racism of the time as well as that of modern times.
Dana is an intellectual by nature, and she is quick to accept what is happening to her and to try to find ways of coping with a horrific situation. The story pulls no punches when it comes to the slave experience. Characters are complex, and in many ways as trapped by the system around them as Dana is trapped by the time travel phenomena.
