Reevaluates Charles Chesnutt's deft manipulation of the “passing†theme to expand understanding of the author's fiction and nonfiction. Nine contributors apply a variety of theories to add richness to readings of Chesnutt's works. Together the essays provide convincing evidence that “passing†is an intricate, essential part of Chesnutt's writing, and that it appears in all the genres he wielded.
