Bigsby assembles specially commissioned essays to map the full range of Black American literary achievement, with Volume One training critical attention on the tradition of Black fiction and the novelists who shaped it, and Volume Two turning to the poetry and drama that gave voice to Black political and cultural identity, together constructing a comprehensive critical framework for understanding Black American writing as a distinct and vital force in twentieth-century American literature.
