Forlagsbeskrivelse af Native Son af Richard Wright
Bigger Thomas has grown up in Chicago’s slums, reckless, angry and adrift. A respectable job with the affluent Dalton family provides hope but sets him on course for a catastrophic collision between his world and theirs. Hunted by citizen and police alike, and baited by prejudiced officials, Bigger finds himself the cause célèbre in an ever-narrowing endgame. First published in 1940, Native Son shocked readers with its candid depiction of violence and confrontation of racial stereotypes. It went on to make Richard Wright the first bestselling black writer in America. ‘In addition to being a masterpiece, a Great American Novel' Guardian'The most important and celebrated novel of Negro life to have appeared in America' James BaldwinWITH AN AFTERWORD BY GARY YOUNGE
