Native Son

Richard Nathaniel Wright (September 4, 1908 – November 28, 1960) was an American author of novels, short stories, poems, and non-fiction. Much of his literature concerns racial themes, especially related to the plight of African Americans during the late 19th to mid-20th centuries, who suffered discrimination and violence in the South and the North. Literary critics believe his work helped change race relations in the United States in the mid-20th century.

“If one had to identify the single most influential shaping force in modern Black literary history, one would probably have to point to Wright and the publication of Native Son.” – Henry Louis Gates Jr.

Right from the start, Bigger Thomas had been headed for jail. It could have been for assault or petty larceny; by chance, it was for murder and rape. Native Son tells the story of this young black man caught in a downward spiral after he kills a young white woman in a brief moment of panic. Set in Chicago in the 1930s, Richard Wright's powerful novel is an unsparing reflection on the poverty and feelings of hopelessness experienced by people in inner cities across the country and of what it means to be black in America. This edition--the restored text of Native Son established by the Library of America--also includes an essay by Wright titled, How "Bigger" was Born, along with notes on the text.

读后感

我们常常觉得为什么美国黑人不反抗白人的种族歧视，为什么能够忍受上百年的压迫。也许此书倒是有答案，我认为那就是没有理论没有领导，一盘散沙是没办法成为大厦的。 美国黑人运动的潮流有两种，一种是武装反抗；另一种则是布莱克·华盛顿所推崇的认真工作，逐渐改变经济地位。...

It is all about identity. It is the start of reading Richard Wright's.

It was not that he did not really want to tell, but the telling of it would have been involved an explanation of his entire life.
