Written in 1899, Grigg's moving, terrifying book describes the Jim
Crow era life of a black man inhabiting a living dystopia. Belton
Piedmont is from a poor background, he works hard to become
educated but is subjected to the full range of discrimination and
racism as he grows older. At the point where he has lost all hope
he is introduced to the notion of a shadow state, 'Imperium in
Imperio', a utopia where black people are treated equally and
attempt to bring their values into the heart of government in
Texas, altering his life forever. Grigg's unflinching narrative
explores nationalism, civil disobedience, voter suppression,
poverty and education, all still familiar themes today. FLAME TREE
451: From mystery to crime, supernatural to horror and myth,
fantasy and science fiction, Flame Tree 451 offers a healthy diet
of werewolves and robots, mad scientists, secret worlds, lost
civilizations and escapist fantasies. Discover a storehouse of
tales, ancient and modern gathered specifically for the reader of
the fantastic. The Foundations titles also explore the roots of
modern fiction and brings together neglected works which deserve a
wider readership as part of a series of classic, essential books.
