From Library Journal

"This fat omnibus volume, containing generous portions of Wright's fiction, nonfiction, journalism, and poetry, reintroduces to a new generation in convenient format a remarkable stylist, a passionate champion of justice, an early interpreter of black thoughts and attitudes, and probably the first major black novelist to achieve international fame" (LJ 1/15/78). Along with Wright's own text, this is buttressed with explanatory notes, biographical data, and a chronological bibliography of the author's works. For all collections.
