Mirroring Nella Larsen's Passing, The Blacker the Berry: A Novel of
Negro Life is the fantastic debut of Wallace Thurman. A Black boy
could get along but a Black girl would never know anything but
sorrow and disappointment. Emma Lou was born black. Abandoned by
her father at birth, she is subjected to skin bleaching by her
mother, hoping to make her child more desirable. Learning that she
is unwanted in white society but also ostracized within her own,
Emma Lou navigates a harsh and unrelenting world as she tries to
come to terms with her life and love herself in the skin she's in.
Professionally typeset with a beautifully designed cover, this
edition of The Blacker the Berry: A Novel of Negro Life is a
reimagining of a Harlem Renaissance staple for the modern reader.
