Playing in the Dark by Morrison, Toni
Playing in the Dark: Whiteness and the Literary Imagination
by Morrison, Toni
 
Morrison's brilliant discussions of the "Africanist" presence in the fiction of Poe, Melville, Cather, and Hemingway leads to a dramatic reappraisal of our literary tradition. She shows how much the themes of freedom and individualism, manhood and innocence, depended on the existence of a black population that was manifestly unfree -- and that served white authors as embodiments of their own fears and desires.
