Vintage Readers are a perfect introduction to some of the great modern writers presented in attractive, accessible paperback editions.

â€œLangston Hughes is a titanic figure in 20th-century American literature . . . a powerful interpreter of the American experience.â€ â€”The Philadelphia Inquirer

Arguably the most important writer to emerge from the Harlem Renaissance of the 1920s and â€˜30s, Langston Hughes was a great poet and a shrewd and lively storyteller. His work blends elements of blues and jazz, speech and song, into a triumphant and wholly original idiom.

Vintage Hughes includes the poems â€œThe Negro Speaks of Rivers,â€ â€œI, Too,â€ â€œThe Weary Blues,â€ â€œAmerica,â€ â€œLet America Be America Again,â€ â€œDream Variations,â€ â€œYoung Sailor,â€ â€œAfro-American Fragment,â€ â€œScottsboro,â€ â€œThe Negro Mother,â€ â€œGood Morning Revolution,â€ â€œI Dream a World,â€ â€œThe Heart of Harlem,â€ â€œFreedom Train,â€ â€œSong for Billie Holliday,â€ â€œNightmare Boogie,â€ â€œAfrica,â€ â€œBlack Panther,â€ â€œBirmingham Sunday,â€ and â€œUnAmerican Investigatorsâ€; and three stories from the collection The Ways of White Folks: â€œCora Unashamed,â€ â€œHome,â€ and â€œThe Blues Iâ€™m Playing.â€
