NATIVE SON was originally published in 1940. "Right from the start, Bigger Thomas had been headed for jail. It could have been for assault or petty larceny; by chance, it was for murder and rape. He was a "nigger" in a white man's world, and his crimes upset the whole of Chicago. He killed his first young victim in an unpremeditated moment of panic-and found himself caught up by forces outside of his control and understanding. But at least he felt alive. He felt a sense of freedom and identity in his acts of violence that neither his woman, Bessie, with her whiskey, nor his mother, with her religion, had been able to give him.".
