Carolyn Vellenga Berman asserts that so-called public issues of race and slavery permeate eighteenth- and nineteenth-century French, British, and American domestic fiction. She illustrates her point by analyzing the ways in which the Creole woman born in the 'periphery' troubles plots conceived at the 'center.' The argument is compelling, the writing clear and elegant. Creole Crossings is a pleasure to read.\" -- Carla L.
