- Annotation
- Compares Hemingway s Big Two-Hearted River, Toomer s Avey, and Gaines s The Sky Is Gray, guiding students to a fuller understanding of their interconnectedness and modernist aesthetic. While Nick experiences happiness in the bucolic setting of northern Michigan, with its understated sense of racial otherness, the protagonist of Gaines s and Toomer s stories must confront the racism and oppression of their urban environments.
