Reviews

"""Racing the Great White Way is a fascinating and much-needed reconsideration of Eugene O'Neill's vexing racial politics, as they play out in several productions and adaptations of his plays. Johnson's research is diligent, and the resulting analysis provides new insight into several notable performances and adaptations of signature O'Neill dramas. This book offers a rich examination on O'Neill's complicated imprint on early 20th Century cultural history."" --Jonathan Shandell, Arcadia University--Jonathan Shandell ""For O'Neill studies, this book could be a game-changer... important and pathbreaking in the historical discourse on racial representation beyond the theatrical. The study also opens the possibility of thinking through the agency of actors in other respects in O'Neill's plays."" --William Davies King, University of California, Santa Barbara--William Davies King"
