Iscriviti per consentire a LibraryThing di scoprire se ti piacerà questo libro. Attualmente non vi sono conversazioni su questo libro. I sped through this, it was so enlightening and well written. I wish I had read Dragon Slayers before I tackled the Norton Anthology of African American Literature. I really appreciated his perspective on reading the works of African Americans. His essays are entertaining and eye opening. Really a lot of food for thought here. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
