We Wear the Mask: African Americans Write American Literature, 1760-1870
Some chapters are better than others. The last two were very interesting views on M-D.
What is it, what nameless, inscrutable, unearthly thing is it; what cozening, hidden lord and master, and cruel remorseless emperor commands me; that against all natural lovings and longings, I so keep pushing, and crowding and jamming myself on all the time; recklessly making me ready to do what in my own proper natural heart, I durst not so much as dare?
When I read this I though - hum, sounds like what a workaholic would say, or perhaps should think and say!
