Explores representations of whiteness from twenty-first-century white American authors, revealing white recognition of the ugly forms whiteness can take. The result is literature that more directly grapples with whiteness as its own construct rather than a wrongly assumed norm. Li contextualizes a series of literary novels as collectively influenced by changes in racial and political attitudes.
