ne of the South’s most revered writers, Ernest J. Gaines (1933-2019) has attracted both popular and academic audiences. His unique literary style, depiction of the African American experience, and celebration of the rural South’s oral tradition brought him critical praise and numerous accolades, incl ing a MacArthur Fellowship, a National Humanities Medal, and a National Book Critics Circle Award for his novel A Lesson before Dying. In this welcome guide to Gaines’s fiction, Keith Clark offers insightful analyses of his novels and short stories. Clark’s close readings elucidate the more acclaimed works—including Иге Autobiography ofMiss Jane Pittman and A Gathering of Old Men—while also introducing lesser-known but masterfully crafted pieces. Gaines’s final work, The Tragedy ofBrady Sims, receives here one of its first critical examinations. Clark shows how the themes of Gaines’s literary oeuvre, produced over fifty years, dovetail with issues reverberating in twenty-first-century America: race and the criminal justice system; black masculinity; the environment; the endur ing impact of slavery; black southern women’s voices; and blacks’ and whites’ in terpretation of history. An interview Clark conducted with Gaines at the writer’s home in 2014 further illuminates the inner workings and personality of this emi nent literary artist. O
