One of the best known and most widely read of early
African American writers, Charles W. Chesnutt
published more than fifty short stories, six novels, two
plays, a biography of Frederick Douglass, and countless essays,
poems, letters, journals, and speeches. Though he had light skin
and was of mixed race, Chesnutt self-identified as a black man,
and his writing was often boldly political, openly addressing
problems of racial identity and injustice in the late 19th century.
This collection of critical essays
réévaluâtes
the Chesnutt
legacy, introducing new scholarship reflective of the many facets
of his fiction, especially his sophisticated narrative strategies.
