This book explores the written representation of African-American spoken-voice storytelling in African American writers from Charles Chesnutt in the late nineteenth century to Toni Cade Bambara and John Edgar Wideman of the mid and late twentieth century. The first scholarly work to examine black storytelling from the frame-tale perspective, the author shows the variety of ways that these writers negotiated the intricate, both intra and extra-textual, relations set up between writer, teller, tale, listener and reader, and provides essential insights into the fundamental role of the audience in the practice of African-American fiction.
