I’ve yet to read Blake, but am interested in its relation to and critique of Uncle Tom’s Cabin. Although I’m not completely sold on the argument of this particular novel, I do think that the link between conspiracy and community is useful and the author does a good job of teasing out the potentially subversive nature of a conspiratorial community. The discussion of Blake’s relevance to late 20th century Black radical tradition was also of interest, and I wish this would have been discussed more in depth. I found this by searching through the African American Review in the library’s journal database.
