4.0 out of 5 stars An Interracial "Lost Weekend", February 16, 2000
By 
This review is from: The End of a Primitive: A Novel (Old School Books) (Paperback)
Himes' French publishers called this book "sadism and buffoonery", but it's much more than that, a meditation on the manners, mores, and racism of '50's America. The Old School editors have once again done a bang-up job, restoring the text to Himes' original, not the whitewashed version published as "The Primitive" in 1955. Check it out!
