How to Read African American Literature offers a series of provocations to unsettle the pre-
dominant assumptions readers make when encountering post-Civil Rights black fiction.
Foregrounding the large body of literature and criticism that grapples with legacies of the
slave past, Aida Levy-Hussen s argument develops on two levels: as a textual analysis of black
historical fiction and as a critical examination of the reading practices that characterize the
scholarship of our time.
Drawing on psychoanalysis, memory studies, and feminist and queer theory, Levy-Hussen
examines how works by Toni Morrison, David Bradley, Octavia Butler, Charles Johnson, and
others represent and mediate social injury and collective grief. In the criticism that surrounds
these novels, she identifies two major interpretive approaches: “therapeutic reading” (premised
on the assurance that literary confrontations with historical trauma will enable psychic healing
in the present) and “prohibitive reading” (anchored in the belief that fictions of returning to
the past are dangerous and to be avoided). Levy-Hussen argues that these norms have become
overly restrictive, standing in the way of a more supple method of interpretation that recog-
nizes and attends to the indirect, unexpected, inconsistent, and opaque workings of historical
fantasy and desire. Moving beyond the question of whether literature must heal or abandon
historical wounds, Levy-Hussen proposes new ways to read African American literature now.
