Romance in Marseilles | Claude McKay

2 posts | 3 read | 2 to read

This is a full-length novel written by Claude McKay in 1933-34, in the same key as the episodic Banjo, but for which he was never able to find a publisher. Richard Bradbury, who discovered the manuscript in New York, provides a critical introduction.

A stunning find. Truly one of the greatest novels of all time. Instant classic; outrageously funny, stunningly queer, heart-wrenching and shocking! Ah!!!

Not just an excellent and fascinating novel, but a superb edition. Hats off to Penguin Classics for producing such a well-supported edition, with a detailed introduction, copious explanatory notes, and a full bibliography. Highly recommended for anyone interested in the literature of the Harlem Renaissance, Claude McKay, and France in the inter-war years.
