About the book

A convincing historical assessment of the period, roughly the 1920's, when a considerable flowering of literary and other arts occurred among black Americans. It does not shy away from encompassing and attempting to explain the often contradictory aspects of the Black psyche and behavior.

First sentence: What made Harlem special was not that it was bawdy and tended to epitomize the most sordid aspects of the Jazz Age.
