Literary studies: general

Hardcover. Jessie Fauset's and Nella Larsen's novels raise important questions about gender and race. This book looks at Fauset's "Plum Bun" and "Comedy: American Style" and Larsen's "Quicksand" and "Passing", finding them revisionary and subversive. It looks at their work rather than at their lives.

Hardback. In Anonymous Life: Romanticism and Dispossession, Khalip approaches romantic subjectivity's fascination with anonymity as an ethics of engaged withdrawal or strategic reticence, arguing that anonymity is an alternative model of being that resists the requirement to inhabit a social category and remains open to change and re-description.
