Ervin has brought together 16 reviews and 26 essays that chronicle
the literary reception of Ann Petry and her three novels in America
from 1946 to the present. Collectively and individually, all of the
reviews and essays gauge the historical, cultural, social,
political, literary aesthetic, and theoretical depths of Petry's
novels. While specific essays will offer overviews of Petry's life
and works, others will name literary influences, explore and
evaluate her style and structure, identify her aesthetic positions
as a writer and novelist, and define her positions in larger
discussions of the male and female in general and the African
American female in particular. Teachers, students, critics, and
others will appreciate this volume. Select reviews and essays
provide an overview of Petry's life and works, style, and literary
position as a novelist, while other reviews and essays present her
as a writer of community, cultural traditions, literary traditions,
and characters. As a social critic, she speaks for the voiceless
and the maligned; her criticism is sympathic, yet frank and honest.
She speaks to and for men and women, rich and poor, young and old.
