Richard Wright's powerful account of his journey from innocence to experience in the Jim Crow South. It is at once an unashamed confession and a profound indictment--a poignant and disturbing record of social injustice and human suffering. When Black Boy exploded onto the literary scene in 1945, it caused a sensation. Orville Prescott of the New York Times wrote that “if enough such books are written, if enough millions of people read them maybe, someday, in the fullness of time, there will be a greater understanding and a more true democracy.” Opposing forces felt compelled to comment: addressing Congress, Senator Theodore Bilbo of Mississippi argued that the purpose of this book “was to plant seeds of hate and devilment in the minds of every American.” From 1975 to 1978, Black Boy was banned in schools throughout the United States for “obscenity” and “instigating hatred between the races.” The once controversial, now classic American autobiography measures the brutality and rawness of the Jim Crow South against the sheer desperate will it took to survive. Richard Wright grew up in the woods of Mississippi, with poverty, hunger, fear, and hatred. He lied, stole, and raged at those about him; at six he was a “drunkard,” hanging about in taverns. Surly, brutal, cold, suspicious, and self-pitying, he was surrounded on one side by whites who were either indifferent to him, pitying, or cruel, and on the other by blacks who resented anyone trying to rise above the common lot. At the end of Black Boy, Wright sits poised with pencil in hand, determined to "hurl words into this darkness and wait for an echo."

Richard Wright's major themes in both fiction and nonfiction -- freedom, existential horror, and black nationalism--are here discussed for the first time in a book-length critical work. Although Wright's fame never diminished in Europe, at the time of his death in 1960 he had long since been dismissed in America as a phenomenally successful Negro author of the thirties and forties whose "protest" literature had subsequently become unfashionable. But, as Edward Margolies illustrates, Wright is important both for his literary achievements and as a Negro spokesman of the 1940's who fairly accurately predicted the events of the 1960's, having studied their causes. Alienation, dread, fear, and the view that one must construct oneself out of the chaos of existence--all elements of his fiction--were for Wright a means of survival and constituted a bond with the existentialist authors Camus and Sartre with whom he was sometimes associated in France in the late forties.
