In An Experiment in Colour, H.I.E. Dhlomo brings to life a provocative tale set against the backdrop of South Africa's complex racial landscape. The story follows a young Black scientist who embarks on an experiment to explore and alter the social dynamics of race. As the experiment unfolds, Dhlomo delves deeply into the psychological and emotional toll of racial discrimination, identity, and the yearning for societal acceptance.

Alongside the gripping story, listeners are treated to three poignant poems: "Frustration", "Our Dear Country", and "Because I Am Black". These poems further reflect the central themes of the audiobook, offering a raw and personal perspective on the struggles of Black identity, self-worth, and the fight for equality.
