The 2-volume LOA edition presents for the first time Wright's major works in the form in which he intended them to be read. The authoritative new texts, based on Wright's original typescripts & proofs, reveal the full range & power of this achievement as an experimental stylist & as a fiery prophet of the tragic consequences of racism in American society. Wright's wrenching memoir "Black Boy", an eloquent account of his struggle to escape a life of poverty, ignorance & fear in his native South, was an immediate bestseller when it appeared in 1945. But Wright's complete autobiography, published for the first time in this volume as "Black Boy" ("American Hunger") is a far more complex & probing work. Its original 2nd section, in which Wright chronicled his encounter w/ racism in the North, his apprenticeship as a writer, & his disillusionment w/ the Communist Party, was cut at the insistence of book club editors & was only published posthumously as a separate work. Now that the 2 parts of Wright's autobiography are finally printed together, "Black Boy" ("American Hunger") appears as a new & different work: a unique contribution to the literature of self-discovery & a searing vision of racism in Northern slums as well as Southern shanties. Richard Wright's novel "The Outsider" (1953) appears here in a text that restores the many stylistic changes & long cuts made by his editors w/o his knowledge. This text, based on Wright's final, corrected typescript, casts new light on his development of the style he called "poetic realism". The "outsider" of Wright's story is Cross Damon, a black man who works in the Chicago post office. When Damon is mistakenly believed to have died in a subway accident, he seizes the opportunity to invent a new life for himself. In this, his most philosophical novel, Wright reconsiders the existentialist themes of man's freedom & responsibility as he traces Damon's doomed attempts to lead a free life. Richard Wright was "forged in injustice as a sword is forged", wrote Ernest Hemingway. W/ passionate honesty & courage, he confronted the terrible effects of prejudice & intolerance & created works that explore the deepest conflicts of the human heart. This volume includes notes on significant changes in Wright's texts & a detailed chronology of his life. * ABOUT THE EDITOR: Arnold Rampersad is Sara Hart Kimball Professor in the Humanities at Stanford University. He has written biographies of Langston Hughes (a Pulitzer Prize nominee), Jackie Robinson, &, most recently, Ralph Ellison. * THE LIBRARY OF AMERICA is an award-winning, nonprofit program dedicated to publishing America's best & most significant writing in handsome, enduring volumes, featuring authoritative texts, restoring America's literary heritage in "the finest-looking, longest-lasting edition ever made."

Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. Here, in authoritative new texts based on the author's original typescripts and proofs, is the definitive edition of Richard Wright's major works. Wright's first novel, Lawd Today!, published posthumously in 1963 and here presented for the first time in its original form, interweaves news b…ulletins, songs, exuberant wordplay, and scenes of confrontation and celebration into a kaleidoscopic chronicle of the events of one day in the life of a black Chicago postal worker. Uncle Tom's Children first brought Wright to national attention. The characters in these five stories struggle to survive the cruelty of racism in the South, as Wright asks "what quality of will must a Negro possess to live and die with dignity in a country that denied his humanity." Wright's masterpiece, Native Son, exploded on the American literary scene in 1940. The story of Bigger Thomas, a young black man living in the raw, noisy, crowded slums of Chicago's South Side, captured the hopes and yearnings, the pain and rage of black Americans with an unprecedented intensity and vividness. The text printed in this volume restores the changes and cuts--including the replacement of an entire scene--that Wright was forced to make by book club editors who feared offending their readers. Wright's wrenching memoir Black Boy, an eloquent account of his struggle to escape a life of poverty, ignorance and fear in his native South, was an immediate bestseller when it appeared in 1945. But Wright's complete autobiography, published for the first time in this volume as Black Boy (American Hunger), is a far more complex and probing work, chronicaling his encounter with racism in the North, his apprenticeship as a writer, and his disillusionment with the Communist Party. Wright's 1953 novel The Outsider appears here in a text that restores the many stylistic changes and long cuts made by his editors without his knowledge. When Cross Damon is mistakenly believed to have died in a subway accident, he seizes the opportunity to invent a new life for himself. The text here, based on Wright's final, corrected typescript, casts new light on his development of the style he called "poetic realism.
