The Immediate Jewel of His Soul: A RomanceMcGrath Publishing Company, 1969 - 317 strán (strany) "In the wide sense there are three points of view from which novelists may write: the bizarre, the real and the ideal. He may portray life in caricature to produce laughter; he may depict it as it is or is likely to occur; and he may exhibit it as it should be. This romance abandons caricature; it adheres strictly to the problems that actually face us now. As its philosophy is realistic idealism, it sets forth some of our immediate aspirations and ideals. It is a story of the earnest Negro, trying to rise unto great place."--Goodreads |
