Rising Above the Hatred

Date of Review:  May 16, 2002
The Bottom Line: An excellent collection of Hughes work.
Review: In the beginning...

Sometimes near the water something stirs within my soul and a feeling of serenity settles over me. Over eighty years ago a majestic American River similarly inspired a young writer. That writer was Langston Hughes and...

Making Statements (The Collected Poems of Langston Hughes)

Date of Review:  Sep 11, 2001
The Bottom Line: There's good and bad in this book. There's good and bad in us all.
Review: ?Bombings in Dixie

It is not enough to mourn
And not enough to pray
Sackcloth and Ashes anyhow,
Save for another day

For the Lord God Himself
Would hardly desire
That men be burned to death?

Excellent collection of a favorite poet.

Date of Review:  Jul 6, 2000
Review: Langston Hughes is often a collected poet, but I have never seen a collection as diverse as this.

Hughes entered the poetic scene of the Harlem Renaissance in the 1920s, and continued to publish until his death in 1967. This volume collects...

One of the best poets ever

Date of Review:  Jan 1, 2000
Review: Langston Hughes speaks with just the right amount of anger, love, and trust. He doesn't overdue any emotions. Langston Hughes speaks out about racism in a very eloquent way, as well as telling you in no uncertain terms the way in which he feels...

Date of Review:  Dec 10, 1999
Review: This collection contains a whopping 850+ poems by Langston Hughes, the "poet laureate of Harlem". The poems span Hughes' lifetime, and contain such famous works as "The Negro Speaks of Rivers" and "I, Too" alongside lesser-known poems, 300 of which...
