A gathering of the best jazz fiction from the 1920s to the present, this anthology includes 20th-century fiction by Eudora Welty, James Baldwin, Richard Yates, and others, plus important recent work from writers such as Yusef Komunyakaa, Xu Xi, and Amiri Baraka. Together these artists demonstrate the strong influence of jazz on fiction. That influence can be felt in prose styles shaped by jazz-freewheeling, dramatic, conversational, improvisatory; in stories of players and listeners searching for what lies beyond the music's aesthetic power; and in the ambience of the jazz performance as captured by the written word. What sounds throughout these stories is the universal voice of humanity that is the essence of the music.

From the Harlem Renaissance to the present, African American writers have drawn on the rich heritage of jazz and blues, transforming musical forms into the written word. In this companion volume to The Hearing Eye, distinguished contributors ranging from Bertram Ashe to Steven C. Tracy explore the musical influence on such writers as Sterling Brown, J.J. Phillips, Paul Beatty, and Nathaniel Mackey. Here, too, are Graham Lock's engaging interviews with contemporary poets Michael S. Harper and Jayne Cortez, along with studies of the performing self, in Krin Gabbard's account of Miles Davis and John Gennari's investigation of fictional and factual versions of Charlie Parker. The book also looks at African Americans in and on film, from blackface minstrelsy to the efforts of Duke Ellington and John Lewis to rescue jazz from its stereotyping in Hollywood film scores as a signal for sleaze and criminality. Concluding with a proposal by Michael Jarrett for a new model of artistic influence, Thriving on a Riff makes the case for the seminal cross-cultural role of jazz and blues.

Exploring twentieth-century African American writing in light of recent critical reconsiderations of American modernism, this book focuses on the poetry of Langston Hughes and Michael S. Harper, and the fiction of Ralph Ellison and Albert Murray. Recent studies have suggested that American modernism thrives on a cultural hybridity unique to the United States. Michael Borshuk argues that there is a recognizable strand of African American modernist literature that negotiates this hybridity by adopting signal elements from a jazz musical aesthetic: namely, intertextuality, dialogism and parody. Borshuk analyzes how this African American jazz-modernist tradition complements the aesthetic innovation of 'mainstream' modernism in its experimentation with jazz form, but at the same time constitutes an important political intervention in American culture, as it redresses social inequities through an aesthetic of intertextual play. All the more valuable for combining contemporary cultural and musicological theory with an engaging prose style, this book presents a timely contribution to American modernist studies.
