About this product

Product Information

The sequel to Langston Hughes's 1967 classic anthology The Best Short Stories by Black Writers , Gloria Naylor's Children of the Night is a "brilliant collection" of short stories by black writers including Maya Angelou, Ralph Ellison, and Edward P. Jones ( Booklist ). In 1969, Langston Hughes edited The Best Short Stories by Black Writers, the classic compendium of African-American short fiction from 1899 to 1967. A quarter of a century later, Gloria Naylor compiled an encore volume, Children of the Night , gathering together the most gifted black writers of the later twentieth century -- from 1967 to its publication in 1997 -- in a rich and varied collection of stories. The portrait that emerges of the African-American experience in the post-Civil Rights era is stirring, compelling, sometimes disturbing, and certainly provocative. Arranged in in four thematic section -- "Remembering," "Affirming," "Revealing the Self Divided," and "Moving On" -- the thirty-seven stories included brilliantly capture the many facets of the black experience in America.

The model kit arrived in excellent condition as per description and shipping was fast. I admit to getting nervous when collectible items arrive in a padded envelope and while the seller to his credit did add support to the model box with cardboard, the potential for damage would be drastically reduced if packed inside a full carton. That aside, the kit as I stated did arrive safe and sound and I am overall very pleased and completely satisfied with the product and the service.
