Uncle Tom'S Children Av Richard Wright

<p><b>''Wright''s unrelentingly bleak landscape was not merely that of the Deep South, or of Chicago, but that of the world, the human heart'' James Baldwin </b><br><br>Natural disasters, cold-blooded murders, political agitation - all haunt these dark, dramatic novellas set in an American Deep South still corrupted by its slave-owning past. But at the heart of each are the stories of the men, women and children whose resistance against oppression will come to define their lives. <br><br>Originally published in 1938, <i>Uncle Tom''s Children</i> was Richard Wright''s first published work. It would establish his reputation as both a powerful storyteller and a fierce chronicler of racism, violence and oppression in America at the time.</p>
