With an introduction by Jerry W. Ward, Jr. Black Boy is a classic of American autobiography, a subtly crafted narrative of Richard Wright's journey from innocence to experience in the Jim Crow South. An enduring story of one young man's coming off age during a particular time and place, Black Boy remains a seminal text in our history about what it means to be a man, black, and Southern in America. 'Superb.The Library of America has insured that most of Wright's major texts are now available as he wanted them to be tread.Most important of all is the opportunity we now have to hear a great American writer speak with his own voice about matters that still resonate at the center of our lives.'--Alfred Kazin, New York Time Book Review 'The publication of this new edition is not just an editorial innovation, it is a major event in American literary history.' --Andrew Delbanco, New Republic 264 pages.

african american,african-american and black,arts and literature,authors,biographical,biographies,biographies and history,biography and history,children's,children's books, Black Boy, Richard Wright grew up in the woods of Mississippi amid poverty, hunger, fear, and hatred. He lied, stole, and raged at those around him; at six he was a "drunkard," hanging about in taverns. Surly, brutal, cold, suspicious, and self-pitying, he was surrounded on one side by whites who were either indifferent to him, pitying, or cruel, and on the other by blacks who resented anyone trying to rise above the common lot. Black Boy is Richard Wright's powerful account of his journey from innocence to experience in the Jim Crow South. It is at once an unashamed confession and a profound indictment-a poignant and disturbing record of social injustice and human suffering.
