Book Synopsis


Trade Review
"Jermaine Singleton's Cultural Melancholy is a provocative book that will be well-received in the field of racial melancholia studies, and there is no doubt in my mind that it makes an excellent contribution to performance studies."--Abdul R. JanMohamed, University of California, Berkeley
"Interesting, fluid, and compelling. Singleton marshals the relevant research on racial mourning and historical trauma to focus specifically on how performance affects the process of working through."--Gwen Bergner, author of Taboo Subjects: Race, Sex, and Psychoanalysis
