W182dIn the years since the passage of the Civil Rights Act, African-American women have contemplated the struggle for racial justice in an outpouring of novels. this book offers interpretations of 18 of these novels - including works by Margaret Walker, Toni Morrison, Alice Walker, Ntozake Shange and others - examining how they relate to the movement, to the conditions that fostered it and to its failure to achieve educational, economic and social equality.
