Reviews
This new edition of Nella Larsen's now-classic novel, with Rafael Walker's excellent introduction and chronology, along with relevant reviews and contemporary documents about passing, is the best we have, perfect for classroom use and the general reader alike. -- George Hutchinson, Cornell University, author of In Search of Nella Larsen: A Biography of the Color Line Rafael Walker's introduction, along with the edition's appendices, offers important historical contextualization for Larsen's life and novels. These materials enhance, rather than cover over, the proliferation of meanings and contradictions that emerge not only from reviews and criticism but also from biographies and accounts that detail the archival fragments of who Larsen was. Nella Larsen was a formidable novelist and social figure of the Harlem Renaissance, but Walker creates a pathway for students and educators alike to confidently approach the magnitude of her being. -- Haylee Harrell, University of Houston

Synopsis
Written at the height of the Harlem Renaissance (the first sustained artistic movement by African Americans) and of Jim Crow (one of this cultural group's greatest obstacles), Nella Larsen's 1929 novel Passingis easily among the most penetrating, skillfully composed explorations of race and gender in the twentieth century. It focuses on two estranged friends, Irene Redfield and Clare Kendry, who, after years apart, are joltingly thrown back together, their lives transformed radically through one of the most scandalous and intriguing social phenomena of Larsen's time--racial passing. Today, Larsen is ranked as one of the leading novelists of her generation; this novel, her masterpiece, demonstrates why. Appendices include material on the novel's composition and reception, as well as legal documents relating to mixed-race individuals and a selection of recent critical work on the novel's afterlife and the 2021 film adaptation., Written at the height of the Harlem Renaissance (the first sustained artistic movement by African Americans) and of Jim Crow (one of this cultural group's greatest obstacles), Nella Larsen's 1929 novel Passing is easily among the most penetrating, skilfully composed explorations of race and gender in the twentieth century.
