Introduction: Tainted blood: the tragic mulatto tradition -- God's stepchildren: the tragedy of being a halfbreed in South African literature -- An unlovely woman: Bessie Head's mulatta (re)vision -- A little yellow bastard boy: Arthur Nortje's mulatto manhood -- Tragic to magic?: Achmat Dangor's bitter fruit -- Conclusion: Playing in the light.

America's new millennial interest in multiraciality coincides with South Africa's postapartheid push towards greater visibility as the Rainbow Nation. Here, Diana Adesola Mafe argues that the recent celebration of the mulatto as an avatar of positive change for multiracial nations like South Africa and the United States overlooks the complex global trajectories that resulted in this watershed moment. "Mixed Race Stereotypes in South African and American Literature" examines the popular literary stereotype, the tragic mulatto, from a comparative perspective. Mafe considers the ways in which specific South African and American writers have used this controversial literary character to challenge the logic of racial categorization. The result is a transnational dialogue between these respective national literatures, both of which use tragic mulatto fiction as a locus for broader questions about race and belonging.
