Hughes Langston - Mule Bone A Comedy Of Negro Life - Paperback

Binding: Paperback
Description: The only collaboration between the two brightest lights of the Harlem Renaissance Zora Neale Hurston and Langston Hughes In 1930, two giants of African American literature joined forces to create a lively insightful often wildly farcical look inside a rural Southern black community the three - act play Mule Bone. In this hilarious story Jim and Dave are a struggling song - and - dance team and when a woman comes between them chaos ensues in their tiny Florida hometown. This extraordinary theatrical work broke new ground while triggering a bitter controversy between the collaborators that kept it out of the public eye for sixty years. This edition of the rarely seen stage classic features Hurston's original short story " The Bone of Contention " as well as the complete recounting of the acrimonious literary dispute that prevented Mule Bone from being produced or published until decades after the authors deaths.
