- Annotation
- Influence study focusing on Anderson s Dark Laughter (1925) and Hemingway s The Torrents of Spring. Wright-Cleveland contends that Hemingway s satiric treatment of Anderson s racial stereotyping exposes the absurdity of Anderson s flawed views on white privilege and superiority. Concludes that Anderson s misunderstanding of the connection between blackness and whiteness influenced later writers such as Hemingway, Faulkner, and Toomer to redefine the pivotal role of race in the formation of American identity.
