As a poet, playwright, novelist, short-story writer, and critic,
Gayl Jones has always resisted labels in her quest to find a
liberating voice for black women and herself. With a poet's
lyricism and a musician's ear for rhythm, she continually seeks new
ways to confront the barriers, traumas, insecurities, and
prejudices oppressing black women, and, by extension, all women.
After the Pain: Critical Essays on Gayl Jones is the first
comprehensive collection of essays dedicated solely to the
exploration of Jones's work. Ranging from analyses of her use of
language and music to reevaluations of her representation of
sexuality and gender roles to examinations of the oft-overlooked
connections between Latin America and African Americans, each of
these essays investigates Jones's desire to continually complicate
the process of identity formation.
