Sinopsis

Irvin S. Cobb's 'J. Poindexter, Colored' delves into the complex and nuanced portrayal of race relations in the American South during the early 20th century. Through the story of J. Poindexter, a black man navigating a society rife with prejudice and discrimination, Cobb masterfully illuminates the harsh realities faced by African Americans. The narrative is characterized by Cobb's signature blend of wit, humor, and poignant observations, making it a compelling and thought-provoking read. The book's exploration of social injustice and the resilience of the human spirit is powerfully conveyed through Cobb's vivid and incisive prose. 'J. Poindexter, Colored' stands as a timeless work of literature that continues to resonate with readers today. Irvin S. Cobb, a renowned journalist and humorist, drew inspiration for this novel from his own experiences growing up in the South and witnessing the injustices of racial segregation. His keen insights and deep empathy shine through in his portrayal of J. Poindexter's struggles, making the book a poignant and impactful commentary on race and society. I highly recommend 'J. Poindexter, Colored' to readers interested in exploring the complexities of race relations and the enduring power of human resilience.

    Sold-out concerts, screaming fans, TV shows, Number Ones. This is the rock and roll dream, and the Wonderkids are living it. But something's wrong. The gigs are sold out, sure, but the halls are packed with little kids - not sexy hipsters. Edward Lear, the Wonderkids' lead singer, songwriter, and resident mad genius Blake Lear has always written lyrics as silly as they are infectious. Rock and roll has always been for the kids, right? This is why Blake has no objection when the band is offered a deal with the devil: the Wonderkids will be rock stars, adored and revered. The catch? Their audience will be children. The band takes America by storm, and things go very right - until they go very wrong.
