Focusing on the trope of passing, the volume discusses how early African American authors such as W. W. Brown, F. J. Webb, F. E. Harper, C. W. Chesnutt, and J. W. Johnson transformed traditional representations of blackness in American fiction. They created a body of works that laid the foundation for the Harlem Renaissance and changed the course of American letters. The volume was selected as an “Outstanding Academic Book” by _Choice Magazine_ in 2002. In 2005, the book was reprinted in paperback
