Playing in the Dark: Whiteness and the Literary Imagination by Toni Morrison

3.0

---

This was a lot more academic than I was hoping it to be. I don't think I fully comprehended all Morrison explained, but I understood the main takeaways and bracketed several passages. Overall, this publication is a call for more literary research and criticism like that which is found in this text. I really loved her in depth analysis of works by Cather and Hemingway and wish there had been more analyses like this. I hope to get more out of Playing in the Dark upon rereading.
