" . . . absorbing biographical study . . . " -Black Enterprise
"Meticulously researched and thoroughly engaging . . . " -Tulsa Studies in Women's Literature
" . . . a splendid study . . . excellent . . . " -Choice
"Color, Sex, and Poetry provides both the bread and the meat of critical analysis and exploration of the lives of three Black women writers." -Belles Lettres
" . . . Hull succeeds not only in exploring writers whose work is hampered by their 'split authorial personalities' but also in outlining the effects of economic circumstances on literary production." -Signs
A biographical/critical study of three Harlem Renaissance poets-Angelina Weld Grimke, Alice Dunbar-Nelson, and Georgia Douglas Johnson-during a rich and colorful period. Writing from a black feminist critical perspective, Hull recovers these black foremothers and in the process shakes up the traditional black literary canon.
