Implied Author, Overall Consideration, and Subtext of “Désirée's Baby” by Dan Shen, https://doi-org.offcampus.lib.washington.edu/10.1215/03335372-2009-021
 * Désirée's Baby
 * This article seems to be the best suited for expansion based on the texts that we have read since the article itself does not cover as much historical background as could be helpful for a wholistic view of the topic. The article currently includes quite a lot of literary discussion and context for the general themes but not much information regarding the historical context for the piece. Specifically, the text lacks nuance and understanding of the complexities of Louisiana society of the time in terms of the racial hierarchy and legacy of slavery.
