Histories
claims that the history of the nation is hidden—in plain sight—within
the pages of twentieth-century American literature. David Wyatt argues that the na¬
tion s fiction and nonfiction expose a secret history that cuts beneath the straight
histories of our official accounts. And it does so by revealing personal stories of
love, work, family, war, and interracial romance as they were lived out across the
decades of the twentieth century.
Wyatt reads authors both familiar and neglected, examining double conscious¬
ness in the post-Civil War era through works by Charles W. Chesnutt, W. E. B.
Du Bois,
and Booker T. Washington. He reveals aspects of the Depression in the fic¬
tion of F. Scott Fitzgerald, Anzia Yezierska, and John Steinbeck. Period by period,
Wyatt s nuanced readings recover the felt sense of life as it was lived, opening
surprising dimensions of the critical issues of a given time. The rise of the women s
movement, for example, is revivified in new appraisals of works by
Eudora
Welty,
Ann
Petry,
and Mary McCarthy.
Running through the examination of individual works and times is Wyatt s argument
about reading itself. Reading is not a passive activity but an empathetic act of co-
creation, what Faulkner calls overpassing to love. Empathetic reading recognizes
and relives the emotional, cultural, and political dimensions of an individual and col¬
lective past. And discovering a usable American past, as Wyatt shows, enables us to
confront the urgencies of our present moment.
