Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From the Publisher
A generation ago Prentice Hall's Twentieth Century Views series set the standard for truly useful collections of literary criticism on widely studied authors. These collections of essays, selected and introduced by distinguished scholars, made the most informative and provocative critical work on each writer easily available to students, scholars, and the general public. Now the New Century Views series, co-edited by Richard Brodhead and Maynard Mack, offers volumes of the same excellence for the contemporary moment. Each volume captures and makes accessible the most stimulating critical writing of our time on crucial literary figures of the past and present. Also included in each is an introduction to the author's life and work, a chronology of important dates, and a selected bibliography.

Richard Wright's Novels brought to New Light,
By A Customer
This review is from: Richard Wright: A Collection of Critical Essays (Paperback)
The Essay's presented in Richard Wright : A Collection of Critical Essays (New Century Views)are a new and exciting twist to Wiright's novels. I have read both Native Son and Black Boy, and have pondered the maning of both, not realizing many crucial elements until I read this book. Although some of the books ideas are superficial, most of the essays are in-depth and stimulating. Definately a must-read book.
