“Iola Leroy” by Francis Harper was first published in 1892. It was also titled “Shadows Uplifted.”
It is known as one of the first novels published by an African-American female writer. The novel very dutifully follows what is known as the ‘sentimental’ conventions of late 19th century writing about women.
The book also deals with several serious issues of education for women, miscegenation, abolition, passing, temperance, and social responsibility.
The period between 1890 and 1910 is known as ‘the women’s era’ in the United States. Harper wrote “Iola Leroy” during that period. Between 1890 and 1910, several female writers produced volumes of work.
