Born into a distinguished Boston family, she appeared in Gershwin's Porgy and Bess, then lived in the Soviet Union with a group that included Langston Hughes, to whom she proposed marriage. She later became friends with Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, who encouraged her to finish her second novel, The Wedding, which became the octogenarian author's first bestseller. Literary Sisters reveals a different side of West's personal and professional lives - her struggles for recognition outside of the traditional literary establishment, and her collaborations with talented African American women writers, artists, and performers who faced these same problems. West and her "literary sisters"--Women like Zora Neale Hurston and West's cousin, poet Helene Johnson - created an emotional support network that also aided in promoting, publishing, and performing their respective works. Integrating rare photos, letters, and archival materials from West's life, Literary Sisters is not only a groundbreaking biography of an increasingly important author but also a vivid portrait of a pivotal moment for African American women in the arts."--Project Muse Includes bibliographical references and index |

Mitchell and Cynthia Davis Dorothy West and her circle New Brunswick, N.J. Rutgers University Press © 2012 1 Online-Ressource (xi, 200 pages, [12] pages of plates) txt rdacontent c rdamedia cr rdacarrier Chapter 1 -- "Nothing So Broadening as Travel"; Chapter 2 -- The Benson Family Comes to Boston; Chapter 3 -- Pauline Hopkins and African American Literature in New England; Chapter 4 -- Boston Girlhoods, 1910-1925; Chapter 5 -- The Youngest Members of the Harlem Renaissance, 1926-1931; Chapter 6 -- Russian Interlude, Literary Salons, and Challenge "Harlem Renaissance writer Dorothy West led a charmed life in many respects. Born into a distinguished Boston family, she appeared in Gershwin's Porgy and Bess, then lived in the Soviet Union with a group that included Langston Hughes, to whom she proposed marriage. She later became friends with Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, who encouraged her to finish her second novel, The Wedding, which became the octogenarian author's first bestseller. Literary Sisters reveals a different side of West's personal and professional lives - her struggles for recognition outside of the traditional literary establishment, and her collaborations with talented African American women writers, artists, and performers who faced these same problems. West and her "literary sisters"--Women like Zora Neale Hurston and West's cousin, poet Helene Johnson - created an emotional support network that also aided in promoting, publishing, and performing their respective works. Integrating rare photos, letters, and archival materials from West's life, Literary Sisters is not only a groundbreaking biography of an increasingly important author but also a vivid portrait of a pivotal moment for African American women in the arts."--Project Muse Includes bibliographical references and index West, Dorothy / 1907-1998 fast West, Dorothy 1907-1998 Criticism and interpretation West, Dorothy 1907-1998 (DE-588)124511104 gnd rswk-swf 1900 - 1999 fast Geschichte 1900-2000 Geschichte 1920-1933 gnd rswk-swf African American arts / New York (State) / New York Harlem (New York, N.Y.) / Intellectual life / 20th century West, Dorothy, 1907-1998 / Criticism and interpretation Literature LITERARY CRITICISM / American / General bisacsh SOCIAL SCIENCE / Women's Studies bisacsh African American arts fast African American women in literature fast African American women / Intellectual life fast American literature / African American authors fast American literature / Women authors fast Harlem Renaissance fast Intellectual life fast Literatur Weibliche Schwarze.
