Hughes describes this epc poem in his introduction -" this poem on cntemporary Harlem, like be-bop, is marked by conflicting changes, sudden nuances, sharp and impudent interjections, broken rhythms, and passages sometimes inthe manner of the jam session, sometimes the popular song, punctuated by the riffs, runs, breaks, and disc-tortions of the music of a community in transition." This copt has a little rubbing at the ends of the spine and a thin crack in the gutter of the half-title, but binding is strong and the book clean. ; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 75 pages
