商品簡介
When it was first published in 1965, Manchild in the Promised Land was praised for its realistic portrayal of Harlem—the children, young people, hardworking parents; the hustlers, drug dealers, prostitutes, and numbers runners; the police; the violence, sex, and humor. The New York Times Book Review declared that it was “written with brutal and unvarnished honesty in the plain talk of the people, in language that is fierce, uproarious, obscene and tender.” The book continues to resonate generations later, not only because the struggles of urban youth are as deeply felt today as they were in Brown’s time but also because of its inspiring message. Here is the story about the boy who “made it.”
作者簡介
Claude Brown was born in New York City and grew up in Harlem. At age seventeen, after serving several terms in reform school, he left Harlem for Greenwich Village. He went on to receive a bachelor's degree from Howard University and attended law school. He also wrote a book called The Children of Ham in 1976. Manchild in the Promised Land evolved from an article he published in Dissent magazine during his first year at college. He died in 2002 at the age of 64.
