INTRODUCED BY DIANA EVANS
'She is a writer of huge compassion and acute observation, and also of dazzling style . . . her work is more relevant than ever' DIANA EVANS
'Sure to secure her reputation as a master of the shorter forms . . . West's world is the world of black people reaching for the American dream in the wake of slavery and often finding themselves betrayed (or betraying themselves) in their struggle to conform to standards that are only half theirs . . . pure pleasure, pure impact. And the non-fiction pieces are just as good' WASHINGTON POST
For seven decades Dorothy West enriched America's literary tradition as a celebrated novelist, short-story writer, essayist and editor. The Richer, The Poorer is a collection of West's most luminous stories and autobiographical writing. The themes are universal: the daily misunderstandings between old and young, men and women, rich and poor; and the ways in which bonds of family and community can bring us together and tear us apart. West's reminiscences explore the poles of her remarkable long life - from growing up black and middle-class in Boston, to her role in the Harlem Renaissance movement.
