The Harlem Renaissance was a cultural movement that saw an
explosion of Black art, music and writing, yet few female creatives
are remembered alongside their male counterparts. Part of the
Macmillan Collector's Library; a series of stunning, clothbound,
pocket-sized classics with gold foiled edges and ribbon markers.
These beautiful books make perfect gifts or a treat for any book
lover. Women of the Harlem Renaissance is edited by Marissa
Constantinou and introduced by Professor Kate Dossett. Exploring
subjects from love, loss and motherhood to jazz, passing and Jim
Crow law, the poems and stories collected in this anthology
celebrate the women of colour at the heart of the movement. Alice
Dunbar-Nelson parades through New Orleans in 'A Carnival Jangle'
whilst Carrie Williams Clifford takes to Fifth Avenue in 'Silent
Protest Parade', and Nella Larsen seeks a mother's protection in
'Sanctuary'. Showcasing popular authors alongside writers you might
discover for the first time, this collection of daring and
disruptive writing encapsulates early twentieth-century America in
surprising and beautiful ways.
