Description

Description

A monumental literary event has been uncovered in the form of Claude McKay's final novel, Amiable with Big Teeth. This rich and multilayered portrayal of life in 1930s Harlem is a powerful historical protest for black freedom.

Set against the backdrop of a crucial but largely forgotten event in American history, the novel centers on the efforts by Harlem intelligentsia to organize support for the liberation of fascist-controlled Ethiopia. A penetrating satire of political machinations in Depression-era Harlem, the book also tells a far-reaching story of global intrigue and romance.

Published by Penguin Classics, a leading publisher of classic literature, Amiable with Big Teeth offers a unique insight into the concerns, anxieties, hopes, and dreams of African-Americans at a moment of crisis for the soul of Harlem-and America.
