The Northeastern Library of Black Literature. 222 pages. paperback. Illustration by Michael McCurdy. Cover design by Ann Twombly and Angela Dombroski. keywords: Literature Black America. FROM THE PUBLISHER - This scathingly humorous novel establishes George Schuyler as one of the leading satirists of the twentieth century. The plot revolves around the picaresque adventures of the young black protagonist, Max fisher, who, thanks to the scientific discovery of a brilliant physician, becomes white. In the burlesque of the obsession with skin color that preoccupied both blacks and whites in the United States, Schuyler creates thinly disguised portraits of black leaders such as W. E. B. Du Bois and Marcus Garvey with characteristic irreverence. inventory #32197 ISBN: 155553063x.
