关于此电子书

THE CELEBRATED SHORT STORY COLLECTION FROM THE AMERICAN POET AND WRITER OFTEN CALLED THE 'POET LAUREATE OF HARLEM'

A black maid forms a close bond with the daughter of the cruel white couple for whom she works. Two rich, white artists hire a black model to pose as a slave. A white-passing boy ignores his mother when they cross each other on the street.

Written with sardonic wit and a keen eye for the absurdly unjust, these fourteen stories about racial tensions are as relevant today as the day they were penned, and linger in the mind long after the final page is turned.

'Powerful, polemical pieces' New York Times

'Some of the best stories that have appeared in this country in years' North American Review

作者简介

LANGSTON HUGHES was a central figure of the Harlem Renaissance and one of the most influential American writers of the twentieth century. Hughes published more than thirty-five books, including his award-winning debut novel, Not Without Laughter, and the short story collection, The Ways of White Folks. His journalism and non-fiction became important documents in the support and promotion of the civil rights movement.
