Originally given the working title 'Jordan is so Chilly', Smith later changed the title to 'Strange Fruit' prior to its publication. In her autobiography, singer Billie Holiday wrote that Smith chose to name the book after her song 'Strange Fruit' which was about the lynching and racism against African Americans. Smith maintained the book's title referred to the 'damaged, twisted people (both black and white) who are the products or results of our racist culture'. After the book's release, the book was banned in Boston and Detroit for 'lewdness' and crude language. 'Strange Fruit' was also banned from being mailed through the U.S. Postal Service until President Franklin D. Roosevelt interceded at his wife Eleanor's request. Quite a scarce book.

Overall, very good+. The author was a Southern American writer, social critic, and early civil rights advocate who fearlessly addressed the entrenched racism and segregation of the United States at the height of the Jim Crow era. Her most popular work - originally titled 'Jordan Is So Chilly' - it would break one of the period's most deeply-rooted cultural taboos through its frank portrayal of interracial relationships. Its publication provoked considerable controversy: the novel was banned in Boston and Detroit, while the United States Postal Service prohibited its interstate distribution (later rescinded following a personal appeal by the publisher to then First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt). Notwithstanding, it would prove enormously popular, going on to sell over one million copies, issued in multiple later reprints, inspiring both film and stage adaptations, and rendered into several other languages.
