A biography of Richard Wright, author of Black Boy and Native Son, from his impoverished childhood, involvement in left-wing politics and literary relationships, to his exile and death in Paris.
"I gave Native Son everything I had because once America reads it, I might never get another chance". - Richard Wright
The man was genius and we appreciate all of his hardwork and how he expressed the Black experience through his books without apology.
Thanks for uploading this!
Thank You for this beautiful documentary of Richard Wright and his works. I read 'Native Son' in college and identified son then being born in Memphis, Tn, lived also in Mississippi and Chicago. Now I live in England and am thrilled my husband has the Recorded Books Presents 'Black Boy' American Hunger in our library. I will be building from it all in my continued writings... Sincerely Tempie...Albert and Tempie
I picked up Wright's novella, Right of Passage, by chance one day. He has such a clear, visual style with well-rounded characters and realistic themes. I'm started reading Native Son and hope to read more of his works in the future.
Great book
