Damballah's narratives examine the vexed history of Homewood, a Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania neighborhood whose origins are rooted in a time when slavery was still legal in the United States of America. The novels Hiding Place and Sent for You Yesterday personalize and interrogate that history's presence in the contemporary lives of Homewood people and all Americans. Deeply concerned that designations such as "economically oppressed" or "Black" continue to dismiss and marginalize rather than embrace communities like the one in which he was raised, John Edgar Wideman--employing words on the page as his weapon--has dedicated himself to recording the weight, beauty, complexity, and justice that he believes Homewood's voices, stories, and lives have earned and deserve. In 1985, The Homewood Trilogy signaled the arrival of a major voice in American literature. Forty years later, this edition of the Trilogy celebrates Wideman's ongoing contribution by offering these masterworks to a new generation of readers." -- |cProvided by publisher. 650 0 African Americans |zPennsylvania |zPittsburgh |vFiction. |=^A2035 651 0 Pittsburgh (Pa.) |vFiction. |=^A608711 650 0 City and town life |vFiction. |=^A461636 655 7 Linked stories. |2lcgft 655 7 short stories. |2aat 655 7 Novels. |2lcgft 655 7 Nouvelles. |2rvmgf 700 1 Kamali, Leila, |ewriter of introduction. |=^A1326128 700 12 |iContainer of (work):Wideman, John Edgar. |tDamballah. |=^A155829 700 12 |iContainer of (work):Wideman, John Edgar. |tHiding place. |=^A155829 700 12 |iContainer of (work):Wideman, John Edgar. |tSent for you yesterday. |=^A155829 949 Order on Demand |wASIS |hJOYNER219 960 |o1 |s20.00 |uJENG |zUSD 961 |fDMD |m138099 596 1 998 6303064
