The Secret Life of Bees
question
books with a interracial relationship??
"Five Smooth Stones" by Ann Fairbairn. Great read. Also, a more recent and really great book, "The Supremes at Earl's All You Can Eat".
I can't think of any, but you can join this group: https://www.goodreads.com/group/show/185
Then, you can post this under the "requests: for books in general" folder, and somebody will probably be able to help you find one :)

James Baldwin had one. Don`t recall its name.
There`s a French Algerian novel about a relationship between an Algerian Jewess and an Arab. Small or Smail was the autor. The Arab is a Young man, highly intelligent, subjected to both outright prejudice and condescending patronage who ends up going into the porno business.
DREAMS OF MY FATHER by the Prez. His relationship with his grandparents and mother are clearly defined.

Gods in Alabama - Joshilyn Jackson
Friday Night Knitting Club - Kate Jacobs
Those are the only two I can think of off the top of my head. I'll come back if I think of more :)

The Story of Beautiful Girl - Rachel Simon
Milk in my Coffee - Eric Jerome Dickey. I think he may have others like that, too.

The Falconhurst books by Kyle Onstott have "relationships" between whites and black slaves prior to the Civil War (in the US).
Pay It Forward by Catherine Ryan Hyde. The movie wimped out and didn't have Trevor's Mom and his teacher be of different races, but in the book they are.
Major Pettigrew's Last Stand by Helen Simonson. Very moving story of the blossoming romance between a retired major and an Asian shopkeeper.
The Color of Water by James McBride. It's memoir, and it's amazing.
Seasons of Migration to the North by Tayeb Salih, maybe? One of the characters has quite a few interracial relationships, but the book isn't really about those relationships as such.
On Beauty by Zadie Smith.
