I am writing a paper on how Gloria Naylor's "Mama Day" and Bell Hook's
"Bone Black" use description to create different reader expectations.
Mama Day has uses lots of detail, history and character development;
Bone Black is fuzzier and provides a rough outline of story events.
I'd like help finding any internet research/literary criticism about
these books, if possible literary criticism that deals with how these
authors use description. I need Google Answers assistance by April
23rd if I am to use it in my paper. Thank you. :)

Gloria Naylor is one of my absolute favorites!  Can I recommend a
fascinating book of criticism about her?
