Women of the Harlem Renaissance
Women of the Harlem Renaissance

The Harlem Renaissance was a cultural movement that saw an explosion of Black art, music, and writing, yet few female creatives are remembered alongside their male counterparts.

Exploring subjects from love, loss, and motherhood to jazz, passing, and Jim Crow law, the poems and stories collected in this anthology celebrate the women of color at the heart of the Harlem Renaissance. Alice Dunbar-Nelson parades through New Orleans in 'A Carnival Jangle' whilst Carrie Williams Clifford takes to Fifth Avenue in 'Silent Protest Parade,' and Nella Larsen seeks a mother's protection in 'Sanctuary.' Showcasing popular authors alongside writers you might discover for the first time, this collection of daring and disruptive writing encapsulates early 20th-century America in surprising and beautiful ways.

Part of the Macmillan Collector's Library; a series of stunning, clothbound, pocket sized classics with gold foiled edges and ribbon markers.
