Beschreibungen/Notizen

• "[Langston] Hughes appeals to a broad spectrum of humanity-- children; adolescents heretofore convinced they hate poems; musicians; casual readers; poetry lovers; teachers; critics; scholars. He wrote something for readers of every race, both genders, any age, any class or degree of education." (AMERICAN POETRY REVIEW) An examination of THE COLLECTED POEMS OF LANGSTON HUGHES discusses Hughes' writing style, his early and late poetry and his themes.
