{"product_id":"the-collected-poems-of-langston-hughes-vintage-classics","title":"The Collected Poems of Langston Hughes (Vintage Classics)","description":"The definitive sampling of a writer whose poems were “at the forefront of the Harlem Renaissance and of modernism itself, and today are fundamentals of American culture” (OPRAH Magazine).\n\nHere, for the first time, are all the poems that Langston Hughes published during his lifetime, arranged in the general order in which he wrote them. Lyrical and pungent, passionate and polemical, the result is a treasure of a book, the essential collection of a poet whose words have entered our common language.\n\nThe collection spans five decades, and is comprised of 868 poems (nearly 300 of which never before appeared in book form) with annotations by Arnold Rampersad and David Roessel.Alongside such famous works as \"The Negro Speaks of Rivers\" and Montage of a Dream Deferred, The Collected Poems includes Hughes's lesser-known verse for children; topical poems distributed through the Associated Negro Press; and poems such as \"Goodbye Christ\" that were once suppressed.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0679764089\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: 4EKGU900AMV0_ns\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Hughes, Langston\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Gently used with minimal wear on the corners and cover.
