He teaches well: College students enjoy learning about Reconstruction, a fascinating and under-known period in American history, and reading Chesnutts subtle prose and still-pertinent treatments of American race relations.
Ohio author Charles W. Chesnutt (1858-1932) was the first nationally known African American fiction writer. He published three novels, two collections of short stories, a biography of Frederick Douglass, and dozens of short stories and essays in prestigious magazines of his day. An associate professor of English at Peace College, Raleigh, North Carolina, Charles Duncan is the author of The Absent Man: The Narrative Craft of Charles W. Chesnutt and numerous articles on American literature. He received the Charles Waddell Chesnutt Associations Sylvia Lyons Render Award for his work in Chesnutt studies.
