Overview

This is an in-depth biography of one of the luminaries of the harlem renaissance. It is ideal for both on-level and reluctant readers. Langston Hughes discovered Harlem when he arrived in New York City to go to college. In Harlem, the area where African Americans lived, he found a place where he belonged. He drew inspiration for his poetry from the jazz music he heard and from other African American writers and artists living and working there. Langston travelled all over the world, writing poetry and articles and speaking out about the problems between the races. But he always returned to Harlem, where he could renew his spirit and where he found family and home.
