Anotace knihy

Ellison sought no less than to create a Book of Blackness, a literary composition of the tradition at its most sublime and fundamental." Henry Louis Gates, Jr., TIME From the renowned author of the classic novel Invisible Man, Ralph Ellison s Juneteenth is brilliantly crafted, moving, and wise. With a new introduction by National Book Award-winning author and scholar Charles R. Johnson.Here is Ellison, the master of American vernacular the preacher s hyperbole and the politician s rhetoric, the rhythms of jazz and gospel and ordinary speech at the height of his powers, telling a powerful, evocative tale of a prodigal of the twentieth century.  Tell me what happened while there s still time, demands the dying senator Adam Sunraider to the Reverend A. Z. Hickman, the itinerant Negro preacher whom he calls Daddy Hickman. As a young man, Sunraider was Bliss, an orphan taken in by Hickman and raised to be a preacher like himself. His history encompasses camp meetings where he became the risen Lazarus to inspire the faithful; the more ordinary joys of Southern boyhood; bucolic days as a filmmaker; lovemaking with a young woman in a field in the Oklahoma sun. And behind it all lies a mystery: how did this chosen child become the man who would deny everything to achieve his goals?
