A rediscovered classic about how racism and sexism tests the spirit, ambition, and character of three children growing up in Hellโ€™s Kitchen and Harlem, from the literary editor of The Crisis, the official magazine of the NAACP

With an introduction by New York Times bestselling author Morgan Jerkins

Set in early-twentieth-century New York City, There Is Confusion tells the story of three Black children: Joanna Marshall, a talented dancer willing to sacrifice everything for success; Maggie Ellersley, an extraordinarily beautiful girl determined to leave her working-class background behind; and Peter Bye, a clever would-be surgeon who is driven by his love for Joanna.ย 

As children, Maggie, Joanna, and Peter support one anotherโ€™s dreams, but as young adults, romance threatens to upset the balance of their friendship. One afternoon, Joanna makes two irrevocable decisionsโ€”and sets off a chain of events that wreaks havoc with all of their lives.ย 

First published to immense critical acclaim in 1924, written with an Austen-like eye for social dynamics, There Is Confusion is an unjustly forgotten classic that celebrates Black ambition, love, and the struggle for equality.ย 

The Modern Library Torchbearers series features women who wrote on their own terms, with boldness, creativity, and a spiritย ofย resistance.

Jessie Redmon Fauset (1882โ€“1961) was the daughter of an African Methodist Episcopal minister. She attended Cornell University, where she studied Latin, Greek, German, and French, and became one of the first Black women elected to Phi Beta Kappa. According to some sources she studied at the Sorbonne before earning her M.A. in French from the University of Pennsylvania. Fauset began contributing to The Crisis, the official magazine of the NAACP, in 1912. By 1919, she was its literary editor, becoming the first person to publish Langston Hughesโ€™s and Gwendolyn Bennettโ€™s poetry as well as shaping the careers of Jean Toomer, Countee Cullen, and Claude McKay.
