About Bliss Broyard
Bliss Broyard Biography
After the literary critic Anatole Broyard died in 1990 his family arranged a memorial reception at a suburban Connecticut yacht club. It was a club that claimed to have no black members until after Mr. Broyard’s death his mixed racial lineage was made known. After that the club cited him as evidence of integration.What was it like for Mr. Broyard to keep his secret in such surroundings? For a self-made man who had come so far in life reading so many books in the process did the clubhouse’s view of Long Island Sound bring to mind the grand illusions of “The Great Gatsby”?Not likely says his smart tough-minded daughter Bliss Broyard in “One Drop” an investigative memoir about her father’s life. (Mr. Broyard was a longtime book critic and editor for The New York Times and an essayist for its Book Review.) As this fascinating insightful book makes clear Mr. Broyard left a legacy of racial confusion and great autobiographical material not necessarily in that order.Ms. Broyard shares her father’s bracingly unsentimental spirit to the point where she knows that he had none of Jay Gatsby’s self-congratulatory outlook or sense of American tragedy. More to the point she says “It never seemed to occur to him that someone might want to keep him out.”
