The Sport of the Gods
"I should feel that he had made the strongest claim for the negro in English literature that the negro has yet made. He has at least produced something that, however we may critically disagree about it, we cannot well refuse to enjoy." --William Dean Howells In this extraordinary novel, Paul Laurence Dunbar tells the story of a displaced Southern family's struggle to survive and prosper in early Harlem. The Sport of the Gods was one of the first novels to depict the harsh realities of ghetto life, and the revolutionary truths it uncovered still resonate today.
