Thesis (M.A.)--University of Calgary (Canada), 2009.

This thesis will investigate how contemporary fiction written by mixed race North American authors challenges theories of cultural and racial fluidity. Specifically, I will look at the works of Lawrence Hill, Shani Mootoo, and Danzy Senna, because their work uses similar conditions of hybridity in identity, through the lens of cultural performance. These authors represent my politics of an inclusionary mixed race theory by representing differences amongst themselves that resolve into a focus on language, as it reflects on mixed race literature. I will first consider each author individually, within their own contexts, as a means of understanding the ways that different racial configurations work to create a hybrid perspective on the role that race plays in North America. What these authors have in common is that race is ultimately revealed to be a fiction in each of their works.
