Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. A harbinger of the Harlem Renaissance first published in 1922, this collection of poignant, lyrical poems explores the author's yearning for his Jamaican homeland and the bitter plight of Black people in America-now with an introduction by Pulitzer Prize-winning poet Jericho Brown.A harbinger of the Harlem Renaissance first published in 1922, this collection of poignant, lyrical poems explores Claude McKay's yearning for his Jamaican homeland and the bitter plight of Black and African Caribbean people in America-now with an introduction by Pulitzer Prize-winning poet Jericho Brown.ONE OF THE MOST ANTICIPATED BOOKS OF 2022-VultureWith pure heart, passion, and honesty, Claude McKay offers an acute reflection on the complex nature of racial identity in the Caribbean diaspora, encompassing issues such as nationalism, freedom of expression, class, gender, and sex. The collection's eponymous poem, "Harlem Shadows," portrays the struggle of sex workers in 1920s Harlem. In "If We Must Die," McKay calls for justice and retribution for Black people in the face of racist abuse.Juxtaposing the cacophony of New York City with the serene beauty of Jamaica, McKay urges us to reckon with the oppression that plagues a "long-suffering race," who he argues has no home in a white man's world. Poems of Blackness, queerness, desire, performance, and love are infused with a radical message of resistance in this sonorous cry for universal human rights. Simultaneously a love letter to the spirit of New York City and an indictment of its harsh cruelty, Harlem Shadows is a stunningcollection that remains all too relevant one hundred years after its original publication. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. Seller Inventory # 9780593242681
