S. Councill"; extremely scarce; shelved case 3. Iola Leroy, or Shadows Uplifted, is one of the first novels published by an African-American woman. While following what has been termed the "sentimental" conventions of late nineteenth-century writing about women, it also deals with serious social issues of education for women, passing, miscegenation, abolition, reconstruction, temperance, and social responsibility. [wikipedia]
According to current scholarship, it was the third novel ever published by an African-American woman, following her status as being the first African American woman to publish a short story. W.E.B. Du Bois wrote in a eulogy for her: "she was not a great writer, but she wrote much worth reading. She was, above all, sincere."
Extremely scarce on the market, only one copy found on ABPC and RBH. 1351543. Shelved Dupont Bookstore.
