Thesis (M.A.)--The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, 2006.

Through an examination of two Creole passing subject from literary passing narratives of the twentieth century, this thesis simultaneously treats two problems that have been largely overlooked by contemporary scholarship: the role of the Creole racial identity in the genre of the passing narrative, as well as the possibility of racial passing within the context of a Creole society. In Walter White's 1926 novel, Flight, and Mayotte Capecia's 1950 novel, La negresse blanche , the protagonists' difficulties in negotiating a stable racial identity reveal the inherent weakness of the racial binary that is essential to the very notion of racial passing, and they also show that Creoleness has failed to establish itself as a stable racial identity in the societies represented in both novels.
