| Details: |
African-American writing in all genres is finally given its critical due as a legitimate literary tradition in its own right in the latest (and most talked-about) addition to the "Norton Anthology" series. Its publication, under the much publicized direction of general editors Henry Louis Gates, Jr. and Nellie McKay, has conferred canonical status on exemplary African-American poetry, short fiction, novel, drama, autobiography, journals, and letters, including 11 major works, from Frederick Douglass's "Narrative" to Toni Morrison's "Sula". A companion CD, advertised in a coupon included with the book, provides spoken-word recordings of many of the blues, gospel, spirituals, jazz, rap, folk tales, sermons, prayers, testimonies, and speeches featured in the book itself. |
