註釋A controversial, celebrated, and classic text of American autobiography, Black Boy is a subtly crafted narrative of Richard Wright's journey from innocence to experience in the Jim Crow South. Enduring poverty, hunger, fear, abuse, and hatred while growing up in Mississippi, Wright was desperate for a different way of life and headed north, eventually coming to Chicago, where he forged a new path and began his career as a writer. At the end of the book, Wright sits pencil in hand, determined to “hurl words into this darkness and wait for an echo.”
