Home to Harlem: Harlem Renaissance Series
Autor Claude McKayen Limba Engleză Paperback – 28 sep 2022
Celebrating the finest works of the Harlem Renaissance, one of the most important Black arts movements in modern history.
'Why did I want to mix mahself up in a white folk's war? It ain't ever was any of black folks' affair'
When Jake Brown joins the army during the First World War, he is treated more like a slave than a soldier. After deserting his post to escape the racial violence he is facing, Jake travels back home to Harlem. But despite the distance, Jake cannot seem to escape the past and the explosive ways in which it can culminate.
Written with brutal accuracy, Home to Harlem is an extraordinary work, and was the first American bestseller by a Black writer.
'One of the most gifted writers of the Harlem Renaissance' Washington Post
