The vignettes alternate in structure between narrative prose, poetry, and play-like passages of dialogue. As a result, the novel has been classified as a composite novel or as a short story cycle. Though some characters and situations recur between vignettes, the vignettes are mostly freestanding, tied to the other vignettes thematically and contextually more than through specific plot details. The ambitious, nontraditional structure of the novel - and its later influence on future generations of writers - have helped Cane gain status as a classic of High Modernism. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn \u003cem\u003eThe Negro Novel in America\u003c\/em\u003e, Robert A. Bone wrote: \"By far the most impressive product of the Negro Renaissance, \u003cem\u003eCane\u003c\/em\u003e ranks with Richard Wright's \u003cem\u003eNative Son\u003c\/em\u003e and Ralph Ellison's \u003cem\u003eInvisible Man\u003c\/em\u003e as a measure of the Negro novelist's highest achievement. Jean Toomer belongs to that first rank of writers who use words almost as a plastic medium, shaping new meanings from an original and highly personal style.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlice Walker said of the book, \"It has been reverberating in me to an astonishing degree. I love it passionately, could not possibly exist without it.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 126\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.3 x 9.21 x 6.14 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e January 09, 2019\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47248192667897,"sku":"9781684223008","price":13.86,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/Y3BBV2NlaU40YzBGaU1CeUdtSmh6dz09_da09beb7-43ca-4a86-a652-4bae5e67a4dd.webp?v=1768631503","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/cane-paperback-5","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
