Reviews
Invisibility Blues shows why Michele Wallace has long been at the forefront of African-American cultural criticism. -- Henry Louis Gates, Jr
Michele Wallace is one of the most talented and provocative cultural critics now writing in the USA. Listen and learn! -- Cornel West
Michele Wallace keeps her eyes open and her wits about her. Scrupulously fair, honest, clever and wise. -- Angela Carter
Invisibility Blues is a warm book, even a hopeful one. Simultaneously confident and vulnerable, full of hard-earned insights into American culture and un-starry-eyed evaluations of the available role models, it is the unfinished saga of a proud outsider trying to make a place for herself and her sisters. -- Lucy R. Lippard
Courageous . outspoken . clear-eyed. * Publishers Weekly *
Wonderful . original. -- Susan Brown Miller
