Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Poet, Playwright, Novelist, A Grand Figure In The Harlem Renaissance Of The 1920Slangston Hughes Was One Of The Most Extraordinary And Prolific American Writers Of This Century. This Book Is The First Installment Of A Projected Twovolume Life That Will Undoubtedly Be The Definitive Biography Of Hughes. Based On Exhaustive Research In Archival Collections Throughout The Country And Abroad But Primarily In The Langston Hughes Papers (Previously Closed To Most Scholars) At The Beinecke Library Of Yale University, The Book Traces In Detail Hughes'S Life From His Birth In Missouri In 1902 To The Winter Of 1941. Descended From A Family Steeped In Radical Abolitionism (An Ancestor Had Fought And Died With John Brown At Harper'S Ferry), Hughes Was A Driven Man Who Often Gave The Appearance Of A Happy Wanderer. His Nomadic Life Led Him To Mexico In 1919 And 1920, Africa In 1923, Europe In 1924, And The Soviet Union In 1932. After His Exhilarating Russian Travels, He Completed A Journey Around The World By Way Of China And Japan, And In 1937, He Spent Several Months In Besieged Madrid At The Height Of The Spanish Civil War. Hughes'S Greatest Devotion, However, Was To The Word. Inspired By Both The Democratic Chants Of Walt Whitman And The Vibrant Forms Of Afroamerican Culture, He Became The Most Original And Revered Of Black Poets As Well As A Fiction Writer And Dramatist Of Considerable Power. Although His Political Vision Was Often Radical And His Sense Of Injustice Acute, He Faced The World As An Open, Laughing, And Gregarious Man. Yet, As This Compelling Biography Shows, There Lurked Beneath The Laughter A Gnawing Loneliness That Hughes Strove To Overcome In His Devotion To His Art And His Ideal Vision Of America.
