Uncovering powerful and threatening secrets in African American literature
Leslie W. Lewis is an associate professor of English at the College of Saint Rose, Albany, New York, and coeditor of Women’s Experience of Modernity, 1875-1945.
"Lewis's is the first book-length study of narrative secrets in African American literature. . . . Recommended."--Choice "A provocative unveiling of secrets in African American literature from the mid-nineteenth century through the 1920s. Uncovering what was and is at stake in the discourse of secrecy in African American literature and culture, Lewis helps readers see its grounding in 'master-female slave moments.' The analysis of interracial and sexual secrets is enlightening and instructive."--William L. Andrews, editor of The Literature of the American South: A Norton Anthology
