Bookmarks: Reading in Black and White, First Paperback Edition
ISBN: 9780813543512 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Holloway is the first to call our attention to a trend of many prominent African American writers such as Maya Angelou, W.E.B. Du Bois, Malcolm X, and Zora Neale Hurston. Their autobiographies and memoirs are marked with booklists-records of their own readings. She examines these, along with the trends in Oprah Winfrey's book club, raising the questions: What does it mean for prominent African Americans to associate themselves with European learning? How do books by black authors fare in the hierarchy of a booklist?
