African American Literary Classics - MTO
We are proud to present The African American Literary Classics book set, a collection of classic works by African American authors celebrating each individual's literary contributions and cultural impact. Originally introduced by Juniper Books in 2016, these books have been carefully curated and adorned with custom-printed jackets designed to resemble leather with matte gold titles.
This collection features five anthology volumes published by Library of America, encompassing a diverse range of literary treasures.
Included among these remarkable works are James Baldwin's The Collected Essays, which delve into profound social and racial issues, Frederick Douglass' autobiographical accounts, offering powerful insights into the lived experiences of enslaved African Americans, W.E.B. Du Bois' thought-provoking writings on race and identity, Zora Neale Hurston's evocative novels and stories, and Richard Wright's later works exploring themes of identity and belonging.
Whether you add the set to your bookshelf or gift it to a fellow book and design enthusiast, each set in this collection is made to order!
