Visible Man

The Life of Henry Dumas

Beschreibung

Henry Dumas (1934-1968) was a writer who did not live to see most of his fiction and poetry in print. A son of Sweet Home, Arkansas, and Harlem, he devoted himself to the creation of a black literary cosmos, one in which black literature and culture were windows into the human condition. Jeffrey B. Leak offers a full examination of both Dumas's life and his creative development.
