Title |
Jazz, Diaspora, and the History and Writing of Black Anglophone Montreal
|
Abstract |
The author examines Black English-speaking Montreal's cultural geography, which includes Montreal's jazz age between the 1920s and the 1950s, but she also briefly outlines Black Montreal's earlier history. Noting how Black Montrealers were either ignored or peripherally mentioned by non-Black authors writing about the city, she focuses how Black Anglophone writers, including Mairuth Sarsfield's 1997 historical novel, No Crystal Stair, and Ernest Tucker's 2006 crime novel, Lost Boundaries, portray Black Anglophone history and culture in the city.
