Charles Chesnutt was an African American writer. Chesnutt was an
early pioneer is writing about African American folklore and racial
identity. He wrote about lynchings, segregation and the hypocrisy
of American values in the post Civil War South. The stories in The
Conjure Woman are written in a frame narrative. The outer frame is
told by John a white northerner who bought a vineyard in North
Carolina after the Civil War. John and his wife listen to stories
told by Julius a former slave who works for them. The stories told
by Julius are filled with hauntings, transfiguration, and
conjurings. Chesnutt's stories gave 19th century white readers a
critical glimps at slavery. Chesnutt and his publishers did not
tell the reader that Chesnutt was African American for fear of the
acceptance of the book.
