With a new introduction by the multi-prizewinning young poet Kayo
Chingonyi. For over forty years, until his death in 1967, Langston
Hughes captured in his poetry the lives of black people in the USA.
This edition is Hughes's own selection of his work, and was first
published in 1959. It includes all of his best known poems
including 'The Negro Speaks of Rivers', 'The Weary Blues', 'Song
for Billie Holiday', 'Black Maria', 'Magnolia Flowers', 'Lunch in a
Jim Crow Car' and 'Montage of a Dream Deferred'. A key figure in
the Harlem Renaissance, Langston Hughes is now seen as one of the
great chroniclers of black American experience - and one of the
great artists of the twentieth century.
