Abstract
ABSTRACT:Building on recent studies by Imani Perry and Soyica Diggs Colbert, as well as new work by Julius Fleming, this article argues that the various editions of Lorraine Hansberry's A Raisin in the Sun are invested in a politics of untimeliness and unfinishedness that complicates common understandings of the play's meaning. By attending to the dialogue among the various versions of Raisin, readers are able to recognize the importance of untimeliness and unfinishedness to Raisin's "radical vision."
