Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
A reissue of a 1965 novel, a remarkable narrative of childhood and youth, spiraling out of Dante's Inferno.Much of the novel is an expression of the intellectual and moral lost motion of the age . . . the special agony of the American Negro. New York Times Book ReviewA fevered and impressionistic riff on the struggles of blacks in the urban North and rural South, as told through the prism of The Inferno. . . . Other writers addressed race more directly, but for all its linguistic slipperiness, Barakas language conveys the feelings of fear, violation, and fury with a surprising potency. A pungent and lyrical portrait of mid60s black protest. Kirkus ReviewsWith a new introduction by Woodie King Jr.This 1965 novel is a remarkable narrative of childhood and youth, structured on the themes of Dantes Inferno: violence, incontinence, fraud, treachery. With a poets skill, Baraka creates the atmosphere of hell, and with dramatic power he reconstructs the brutality of the black slums of Newark, a small Southern town, and New York City. The episodes contained within the novel represent both states of mind and states of the soullyrical, fragmentary, and allusive.
