Passing
Passing by Nella Larsen, published in 1929, is a powerful novel exploring race, identity, and the concept of "passing" in Harlem during the Harlem Renaissance. The story centers on two childhood friends, Irene Redfield and Clare Kendry, both light-skinned Black women who have taken different paths regarding their racial identity. Clare "passes" as white, concealing her Black heritage and marrying a wealthy, openly racist white man, while Irene remains in the Black community and lives as a middle-class, respectable woman in Harlem.As their lives intersect, Irene becomes fascinated-and increasingly disturbed-by Clare's audacious approach to identity and societal boundaries. Larsen uses their complex relationship to examine the psychological and social costs of passing and the fraught nature of race, class, and gender in America. The novel's tense and ambiguous ending has sparked much discussion about themes of jealousy, loyalty, and the boundaries people create around themselves and others. Passing remains a significant work for its nuanced portrayal of identity and social constraints and its relevance to discussions on race and belonging.

Hollywood Stories
Eustace Cockrell's writing career began at age twenty-two when his first story, co-authored with his older brother Francis M. Cockrell, was published in Blue Book (September 1932), a major pulp fiction magazine. Moving from Missouri to Los Angeles in the mid-1930s, he continued to write not only for pulp publications but also for "slicks" like Collier's and Saturday Evening Post. In the early 1940s, MGM (Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer) purchased the rights to several of his stories that later became movies including Fast Company and Tennessee Champ. It was his television scripts, however, that brought Cockrell fame. Hollywood Stories is a collection of the author's original tales that captured the imagination of an entire generation and made TV trays a necessity in every American home. In Cockrell's "Hollywood stories," this excitement returns.
