6oger 6osen)lattCs )ook 0lack .iction, manages to alter the a!!roach taken in many
!revious stu-ies )y making an attem!t to a!!ly literary rather than socio!olitical
criteria to its su)Dect. 6osen)latt !oints out that criticism of 0lack writing has very
often serve- as a !rete@t for an e@!oun-ing on 0lack history. ,he recent work of
/--ison EayleCs !asses a Du-gement on the value of 0lack fiction )y clearly !olitical
stan-ar-s, rating each work accor-ing to the i-eas of 0lack i-entity, which it
!ro!oun-s.
,hough fiction results from !olitical circumstances, its author react not in i-eological
ways to those circumstances, an- talking a)out novels an- stories !rimarily as
instruments of i-eology circumvents much of the fictional enter!rise. /ffinities an-
connections are reveale- in the works of 0lack fiction in 6osen)lattCs literary
analysis; these affinities an- connections have )een overlooke- an- ignore- )y solely
!olitical stu-ies.
,he writing of acce!ta)le criticism of 0lack fiction, however, !resumes giving
satisfactory answers to a ?uite a few ?uestions. ,he most im!ortant of all, is there a
sufficient reason, a!art from the racial i-entity of the authors, for the grou!ing
together of 0lack authorsB 5econ-ly, what is the -istinction of 0lack fiction from
other mo-ern fiction with which it is largely contem!oraneousB *n the work
6osen)latt -emonstrates that 0lack fiction is a -istinct )o-y of writing, which has an
i-entifia)le, coherent literary tra-ition. :e highlights recurring concerns an- -esigns,
which are in-e!en-ent of chronology in 0lack fiction written over the !ast eighty
years. ,hese concerns an- -esigns are thematic, an- they come form the central fact
of the !re-ominant white culture, where the 0lack characters in the novel are
situate- irres!ective of whether they attem!t to conform to that culture or they re)el
against it.
6osen)lattCs work -oes leave certain aesthetic ?uestions o!en. :is thematic analysis
allows consi-era)le o)Dectivity; he even clearly states that he -oes not inten- to
Du-ge the merit of the various works yet his reluctance seems mis!lace-, es!ecially
since an attem!t to a!!raise might have le- to interesting results. .or e@am!le,
certain novels have an a!!earance of structural -iffusion. *s this a -efeat, or are the
authors working out of, or attem!ting to forge, a -ifferent kin- of aestheticB /!art
from this, the style of certain 0lack novels, like Fean ,oomerCs (ane, verges on
e@!ressionism or surrealism; -oes this techni?ue !rovi-e a counter!oint to the
!revalent theme that !ortrays the fate against which 0lack heroes are !itte-, a
theme usually conveye- )y more naturalistic mo-es of e@!ressionsB
*rres!ective of such omissions, what 6osen)latt talks a)out in his work makes for an
astute an- worthwhile stu-y. :is )ook very effectively surveys a variety of novels,
highlighting certain fascinating an- little%known works like Fames Ael-on FohnsonCs

9veryone conforms to infancy, infancy conforms to no)o-y, so that one )a)e

:arkR *n the ne@t room his voice is sufficiently clear an- em!hatic. *t seems he
knows how to s!eak to his contem!oraries. 0ashful or )ol-, then, he will know how
to make us seniors very unnecessary.
,he healthy attitu-e of human nature can )e seen in the nonchalance of )oys who
are sure of a -inner, an- woul- -is-ain as much as a lor- to -o or say aught to
conciliate one. / )oy is in the !arlor what the !it is in the !layhouse; in-e!en-ent,
irres!onsi)le, looking out from his corner on such !eo!le an- facts as !ass )y, he
tries an- sentences them on their merits, in the swift, summary way of )oys, as
goo-, )a-, interesting, silly, elo?uent, trou)lesome. :e never cum)ers himself
regar-ing conse?uences, a)out interests an- he gives an in-e!en-ent, genuine
ver-ict. Mou shoul- court him' he will not court you. 0ut the man is, as it were,
cla!!e- into Dail )y his consciousness. /s soon as he has once acte- or s!oken with
eclat, he is a committe- !erson, watche- )y the sym!athy or the hatre- of
hun-re-s, whose affections must now enter into his account. ,here is no 4ethe for
this. /h, that he coul- !ass again into his neutrality.
,hese are the voices, which we hear in solitu-e, )ut they grow faint an- inau-i)le as
we enter into the worl-. 9verywhere society is cons!iring against the manhoo- of
every one of its mem)ers. 5ociety is Doint % stock com!any, in which mem)ers agree,
for the )etter securing of his )rea- to each sharehol-er, to surren-er the li)erty an-
culture of the eater. ,he virtue in most re?uest is conformity. *t is averse to self%
reliance. Ahat it loves is names an- customs an- not realities an- creators.
Ahosoever is a man has to )e a nonconformist. :e who woul- gather immortal
!alms must not )e hin-ere- )y the name of goo-ness, )ut must e@!lore if it )e
goo-ness. Nothing is at last sacre- )ut the integrity of your own min-.
No law can )e sacre- to me )ut that of my nature. Eoo- an- )a- are )ut names very
rea-ily transfera)le to that to this; the only right is what is after my constitution, the
only right is what is after me constitution, the only wrong what is against it. / man is
