Chesnutt's method allows the surface elements of folklore to operate alongside a sustained exploration of history, labour, and social perception. The framing device provides continuity across the collection while permitting variation in tone and subject.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePositioned within American literature, the work is associated with regional fiction and early African American literary tradition. It remains a significant example of late nineteenth-century storytelling that engages both folklore and social experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 82\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.2 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e February 16, 2012\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46143931744442,"sku":"9781617206771","price":17.01,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0768\/5727\/8650\/files\/MUGCqrXbx39781617206771.webp?v=1783774724","url":"https:\/\/thebookloversatlas.com\/products\/the-conjure-woman-stories-of-folklore-and-memory-from-the-american-south-paperback","provider":"The Book Lover's Atlas","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
