Speaking for You: The Vision of Ralph Ellison by Kimberly Benston
Speaking For You: The Vision of Ralph Ellison, by Kimberly Benston, is a collection of critical essays and important interviews analyzing Ralph Ellison’s art, philosophy, and ideology. In addition to the new readings of Invisible Man, the collection’s special focus is on Ellison’s ongoing role in African American culture. “One sure measure of the genius of Ralph Ellison is the fact that, among all African-American writers, his work has probably inspired the finest, most complex pieces of literary criticism and reflection. In Speaking For You, Kimberly Benston has shrewdly selected the most powerful and illuminating of these pieces and presented them in a remarkably artful and yet accessible manner. This is essential reading for admirers of Ellison and for serious students of American literature.” —Arnold Rampersad, Columbia University |
