Assuming the role of the African American griotte of her generation, Gloria Naylor seeks to recover and remember the eroded history of female archetypes in order to overcome the pain that a patriarchal, misogynist society has caused for Black women. Through revisiting and revising Biblical master narratives and JudeoChristian imagery, Naylor sets out to tell the whole story of a truncated history. In great detail, this book throws light on Naylors literary revisionism against the backdrop of a radical Black Feminist Liberation Theology and a matrifocal Africana Womanism. In an analysis that fuses the impact of residual oral narration, geopsychic spaces, and the rediscovery of a Jungian mother pattern, it becomes clear that characters and plot symbiotically enter into the allencompassing realm of the feminine, creative life force. It is here that Naylor carves out a living space for a new generation of African American women.
