I don't have the OA for this but would like to know the answer.
A mixture of poems and short fiction, Jean Toomer’s Cane has been called one of the three best novels ever written by Black Americans—the others being Richard Wright, author of Native Son, and Ralph Ellison, author of Invisible Man.
a)Black Americans—the others being Richard Wright, author of Native Son, and Ralph Ellison, author of Invisible Man
b)Black Americans—including Native Son by Richard Wright and Invisible Man by Ralph Ellison
c)a Black American—including Richard Wright, author of Native Son, and Ralph Ellison, author of Invisible Man
d)a Black American—the others being Richard Wright, author of Native Son, and Ralph Ellison, author of Invisible Man
e)a Black American—the others being Richard Wright’s Native Son and Ralph Ellison’s Invisible Man
I personally thought C was the answer.
'a' is required. So elimiate a and b.Being is not prefered in GMAT, so eliminate D and E. Please let me know what you think is correct.

I'll go with E.. we are comparing books firstly and not the authors, secondly, the parallelism is extasblished only through E....the apostrophe needs to be used everywhere...
I would go with D on this one
A and B are out because we need singular determinant "a"; it is written by one American
C is out because by inserting a present participle, it seems as if "a black American" includes Richard Wright and Ralph Ellison... Furthermore, why use the hyphen as a line-break? Not good to me.
Between D and E, I prefer D because what comes after the line-break, hyphen it is, should relate to the noun preceding it. Hence, the enumeration of names properly relates to Jean Toomer, a black American.
I'll go with E.. we are comparing books firstly and not the authors, secondly, the parallelism is extasblished only through E....the apostrophe needs to be used everywhere...
agree with E. Novel/those books are being compared/talked about. E will have this construction..
