Ishmael Reed has been described as cavorting "like a black bull in
the china shop of Western culture," and The Reed Reader is a
collection of the sharp, jagged results of his rampage. In it, one
of the most renowned African American writers offers a generous
sampling of the brilliant and witty satire, the politically
charged, wildly imaginative storytelling, and the caustic cultural
criticism that have become his trademarks. In these excerpts from
his celebrated novels, poems, plays, and essays, Reed displays an
ironic wit, a cold, keen eye for economic exploitation, a hilarious
sense of the absurd, and a slender but persistent optimism for the
determined souls who transcend their environment and penetrate
illusions by daring acts of will. The Reed Reader is the cumulative
representation of an astonishing career, a powerful testament to
Reed's many and enormous literary gifts.
