SORETT, J., Spirit in the Dark. A Religious History of Racial Aesthetic. Oxford University Press, 2019. 312p. Paperback. Given Sorett's interdisciplinary approach, his weaving together of religious and literary studies in order to make visible the influence (overflow) of the spirit in both sacred and secular cultural forms, Spirit in the Dark will be useful for both scholars of African American religion and African American literature, in particular those focused on Black Modernism. Sorett's text challenges us to move beyond singular and secularizing narratives about this literary period in order to see the full complexity of black cultural forms and the rich contexts in which they were produced.
