Karen Jackson Ford looks at what it means to be African American, free, and creative by analyzing Jean Toomer's main body of work, specifically, ""Cane"", first published in 1923. Ford discovers a complicated, contradictory poet who brings his vexed experience and ideas of racial identity to both conventional lyric and experimental forms.
