Description

Book Synopsis
Highlights references to nineteenth-century US slavery and anti-Black racism in literary and photographic projects begun during the late 1920s and early 1930s, including novels by William Faulkner and Nella Larsen. In this book, each text explores the conservative, even coercive social character of such links between psyche and history.

Trade Review

A compelling, eminently readable, and lively engagement with trauma
studies, race studies, and psychoanalysis.

---—Naomi Mandel, University of Rhode Island

“This is the beginning of a cultural moment for critical studies of
race and trauma, and Stringer makes a timely and eloquent foray into that
field.”

---—Gwen Bergner, West Virginia University
