'This book offers original readings of classic and contemporary black texts, highlighting the pain of racism and love-based strategies of antiracist resistance. Kathy Glass gives sustained attention to the impact of racist affect on the black body and how black women writers deploy emotional states to move readers to progressive political action.
Love-driven politics in Frances Harper's The Two offers -- Do unto others: de-racializing the golden rule in Julia Collins's The Curse of caste; or The Slave bride -- Nella Larsen's Spiritual strivings -- On Blackness and longing in Danzy Senna's Caucasia."
