Not Without Laughter - (Dover Thrift Editions: Black History) by Langston Hughes (Paperback)

Not Without Laughter is a powerful and pioneering novel by Langston Hughes, one of modern literature's most revered African American authors.

This stirring coming-of-age tale follows the story of young Sandy Rogers as he grows from a boy to a man in 1930s rural Kansas.

With a poignant portrait of African American family life in the early twentieth century, this novel masterfully echoes the black American experience.
