'To fling my arms wide / in some place of the sun...'Langston Hughes was twenty-four when The Weary Blues appeared in 1926-a debut that caught the music of Harlem, the ache of the blues, and the tender hush of dreaming, and made it new. Jazz and rivers, night-clubs and sea-charms, weariness and joy: the first book of one of America’s essential poets, already sure of his note.Gathered under the title of one of its loveliest poems, this Lightbound Library edition presents the landmark Harlem Renaissance collection behind an original painting by Jessica von Braun, published by Solocosmo Press.
