Meet Pru. Recently dumped, and on the hunt for a new man. A nice, wealthy widower will do... From the author of THE BEST EXOTIC MARIGOLD HOTEL comes a darkly funny novel of life, loneliness and the foibles of friendship
In this first major biography of John Oliver Killens, Keith Gilyard examines the life and career of the man who was perhaps the premier African American writer-activist from the 1950s to the 1980s. Gilyard extends his focus to the broad boundaries of Killens's times and literary achievement-from the Old Left to the Black Arts Movement and beyond.
