Diawara and Richard Wright
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
Diawara's book is provocative and important for understanding African critical thinking in the twentieth century. The book is especially important for the "third perspective" it enables us to gain for a rereading of Richard Wright's >. I strongly recommend this book to Wright scholars and African Americanists in general.<p>Jerry W. Ward, Jr., Lawrence Durgin Profesor of Literature, Tougaloo College
