Hugh Holman Award from the Society for the Study of Southern Literature. Seems Like Murder Here offers a revealing new account of the blues tradition. Far from mere laments about lost loves and hard times, the blues emerge in this provocative study as vital responses to spectacle lynchings and the violent realities of African American life in the Jim Crow South. With brilliant interpretations of both classic songs and literary works, from the autobiographies of W. C. Handy, David Honeyboy Edwards, and B. B. King to the poetry of Langston Hughes and the novels of Zora Neale Hurston, Seems Like Murder Here will transform our understanding of the blues and its enduring power.African AmericansSouthern StatesIntellectual lifeAfrican AmericansSouthern StatesSocial conditionsBlues (Music)Southern StatesHistoryBlues (Music) in literatureViolence in literatureRace relations in literatureAmerican literatureAfrican American authorsHistory and criticismViolenceSouthern StatesHistorySouthern StatesIntellectual lifeSouthern StatesRace relationsblues, music, race, history, politics, racism, zora neale hurston, langston hughes, bb king, david honeyboy edwards, wc handy, jim crow south, african american, violence, hate crimes, lynchings, spectacle, literature, poetry, songs, entrepreneurship, abjection, redress, resistance, activism, voice, nonfiction, mamie smith, kkk, civil rights.African AmericansIntellectual life.African AmericansSocial conditions.Blues (Music)History.Blues (Music) in literature.Violence in literature.Race relations in literature.American literatureAfrican American authorsHistory and criticism.ViolenceHistory.781.643/0975Gussow Adam1516566MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910781031503321Seems like murder here3753121UNINA
