Summary of Vintage Hughes
Vintage Readers are a perfect introduction to some of the great modern writers presented in attractive, accessible paperback editions.?Langston Hughes is a titanic figure in 20th-century American literature . . . a powerful interpreter of the American experience.? ?The Philadelphia Inquirer
Arguably the most important writer to emerge from the Harlem Renaissance of the 1920s and ?30s, Langston Hughes was a great poet and a shrewd and lively storyteller. His work blends elements of blues and jazz, speech and song, into a triumphant and wholly original idiom.
Vintage Hughes includes the poems ?The Negro Speaks of Rivers,? ?I, Too,? ?The Weary Blues,? ?America,? ?Let America Be America Again,? ?Dream Variations,? ?Young Sailor,? ?Afro-American Fragment,? ?Scottsboro,? ?The Negro Mother,? ?Good Morning Revolution,? ?I Dream a World,? ?The Heart of Harlem,? ?Freedom Train,? ?Song for Billie Holliday,? ?Nightmare Boogie,? ?Africa,? ?Black Panther,? ?Birmingham Sunday,? and ?UnAmerican Investigators?; and three stories from the collection The Ways of White Folks: ?Cora Unashamed,? ?Home,? and ?The Blues I?m Playing.?
