Critical reception
Yellow received positive reviews in both popular and academic circles. Publishers Weekly reviewer Jeff Zaleski comments that while many stories deal with difficult subjects, "Hatred and heartbreak...are mitigated by Lee's cool yet sympathetic eye and frequently dark sense of humor." Kathleen Snodgrass of The Georgia Review finds that many of the stories are driven by a male-female dynamic "in which the men tend to fall for women determined to domesticate and socialize them." She notes that, "Most often, racial differences and tensions are subsumed under a larger question of identity, especially as one's sense of self changes in a love relationship."
