Description du livre Paperback. Etat : Very Good. 153 pages. For all the talk of the black aesthetic, few blac k novelists have broken sharply with the traditional devices of t he realistic novel. One writer who departs from such conventions, however, is Ishmael Reed. . . . The Free-Lance Pallbearers uses an explosive combination of straightforward English prose, exagge rated black dialect, hip jargon, advertising slogans and long, ho wling uppercase screams.â?? Newsweek Ishmael Reed's electrifying first novel zooms readers off to the crazy, ominous kingdom of HA RRY SAMâ??a miserable and dangerous place ruled for thirty years by Harry Sam, a former used car salesman who wields his power fro m his bathroom throne. In a land of a thousand contradictions peo pled by cops and beatniks, black nationalists and white liberals, the crusading Bukka Doopeyduk leads a rebellion against the corr upt Sam in a wildly uproarious and scathing satire, earning the a uthor the right to be dubbed the brightest contributor to America n satire since Mark Twain ( The Nation ).
