Combining scholarship covering one hundred fifty years of novel writing in the U.S., newly commissioned essays examine eighty African American novels. They include well-known works as well as writings recently recovered or acknowledged. The collection features essays on the slave narrative, coming of age, vernacular modernism, and the post-colonial novel to help readers gain a better appreciation of the African American novel’s diversity and complexity.


Review

“Considered separately, the essays in this book are significant works of criticism examining a broad range of the issues implicated in African American literary history. Viewed as a whole, they engage in the kind of open reading ‘companion’ editor Maryemma Graham cautions is our best approach to the African American novel–one that does not flinch at the vastness of the project.”
– North Dakota Quarterly, Lisa Trochmann, University of Minnesota
