Vintage Hughes

Langston Hughes' mastery of the African-American vernacular and his passionate vision of the world resonate in this generous selection of his poems, including TThe Negro Speaks of Rivers," "I, Too," "The Weary Blues," "America," "Dream Variations," "Young Sailor," "Scottsboro," "The Heart of Harlem," and "Freedom Train"; and three stories from "The Ways of White Folks."
