Hunger Overcome?: Food and Resistance in Twentieth-Century African American Literature
Andrew Warnes
This book investigates the juxtaposition of malnutrition and spectacular food abundance as a key trope of African American writing. Warnes focuses on works by Zora Neale Hurston, Richard Wright, and Toni Morrison, and considers how black characters respond to whites' attempts at regulating access to nourishment, whether physical or intellectual.
