Description: Dodd, Mead & Company(Fiction, Historical) The Old South: "A Summer Tragedy" and Other Stories of the Thirties by Arna Bontemps Shop Villagelder's Books-N-Games From the dust jacketArna Bontemps played an important role in the world of black letters and the literature of this country from the days of the Harem Renaissance in which he was a young participant to his death on June 4, 1973. The fourteen stories in this volume generally reflect life in the South during the period of the thirties and the writer's relationship to it. Following an introductory essay in which he reviews his own Louisiana boyhood on a return home, Mr. Bontemps proceeds to recreate in his narrative the bittersweet experiences of family, church, and school, as well as the more exoti glimpses of the fleshpots and eccentric characters that make up a young man's world.
