Damballah's narratives examine the vexed history of Homewood, a Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania neighborhood whose origins are rooted in a time when slavery was still legal in the United States of America. The novels Hiding Place and Sent for You Yesterday personalize and interrogate that history's presence in the contemporary lives of Homewood people and all Americans. Deeply concerned that designations such as "economically oppressed" or "Black" continue to dismiss and marginalize rather than embrace communities like the one in which he was raised, John Edgar Wideman--employing words on the page as his weapon--has dedicated himself to recording the weight, beauty, complexity, and justice that he believes Homewood's voices, stories, and lives have earned and deserve. In 1985, The Homewood Trilogy signaled the arrival of a major voice in American literature. Forty years later, this edition of the Trilogy celebrates Wideman's ongoing contribution by offering these masterworks to a new generation of readers." -- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references. 505 00 $t Sent for you yesterday. $t Hiding place -- $t Sent for you yesterday. 650 0 $a African Americans $z Pittsburgh $z Pittsburgh $v Fiction. 650 0 $a City and town life $v Fiction. 650 7 $a African Americans. $2 fast $0 https://id.worldcat.org/fast/799558 650 7 $a City and town life $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00862081 651 0 $a Pittsburgh (Pa.) $v Fiction. 651 7 $a Pennsylvania $z Pittsburgh. $2 fast $0 https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1205171 655 7 $a short stories. $2 aat $0 (CStmoGRI)aatgf300202607 655 7 $a Fiction. $2 fast $0 https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1423787 655 7 $a Linked stories $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst02003319 655 7 $a Novels. $2 fast $0 https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1921742 655 7 $a Linked stories. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Novels. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Short stories. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Nouvelles. $2 rvmgf $0 (CaQQLa)RVMGF-000000322 655 7 $a Cycles de nouvelles. $2 rvmgf $0 (CaQQLa)RVMGF-000313256 655 7 $a Romans. $2 rvmgf $0 (CaQQLa)RVMGF-000000475 700 1 $a Kamali, Leila, $e writer of introduction. 700 12 $i Container of (work): $a Wideman, John Edgar. $t Damballah. 700 12 $i Container of (work): $a Wideman, John Edgar. $t Hiding place. 700 12 $i Container of (work): $a Wideman, John Edgar. $t Sent for you yesterday. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20240517010357.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=D01B62EA141211EF8F56A7732FECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
