Fiction of Paule Marshall: Reconstructions of History, Culture, and Gender
WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING
In a thorough, incisive study, Dorothy H. Denniston has completed ground-breaking work in close examination of Paule Marshall's fiction. By highlighting the undercurrent of praise for Marshall's work that has been consistent throughout her career, Denniston implicity argues for additional challenging explorations of the creative output of this wonderfully talented writer. Trudier Harris
Scholars will welcome this pioneering study of novelist Paule Marshall. Dorothy H. Denniston provides an illuminating introduction into Marshall's comlete canon, highlighting the manner in which she reclaims African culture for blacks in the diaspora. Daryl Cumber Dance
