"Comprehensive and comparative, this volume investigates African American street novelists from the Chicago Black Renaissance and the semiotic strategies they employ in publication, consumption, and depiction of street life. Divided into three sections, this text analyzes the content, style, and ethics of "street" narrative through a discursive/rhetorical lens, exploring the development of street literature's formal and contextual concerns to answer the sociocultural and political questions surrounding cultural work. The book also gives emphasis to "text" or literary/(post)structural analysis, answering the questions about the genre's aesthetic and linguistic tactics necessitated as a response to the strategies of urban planning. The last section, "representation," investigates the phenomenological hermeneutics of street literature, highlighting the political stakes for authorship, credibility, and subjectivity. Through historical and contemporary studies of urban space, Blackness, and adaptations of street literature, this work provides an performative engagement between networks of support in the greater reading public and the ontology of the inner city"--
