Pauline E. Hopkins' 'Of One Blood: Or, The Hidden Self' is a seminal work of African American literature, published in 1903. The novel follows Reuel Briggs, a mixed-race man who discovers his true identity and heritage through a journey to Ethiopia. Hopkins blends elements of Gothic fiction, spiritualism, and African American folklore to explore themes of racial identity, passing, and the interconnectedness of all human beings. Through intricate plotting and vivid imagery, Hopkins challenges societal norms and exposes the complexities of race relations in America during the early 20th century. Her prose is both eloquent and thought-provoking, showcasing a deep understanding of the human condition and the search for self-discovery. As a prominent figure in the Harlem Renaissance, Hopkins' unique perspective and literary talent shine through in this groundbreaking work. 'Of One Blood' is a must-read for those interested in African American literature, Gothic fiction, and social justice issues, as it offers a powerful and poignant exploration of race, identity, and the hidden self.
