The Men of Brewster Place by Naylor, Gloria
First Edition
New York, NY, U.S.A.: Hyperion Press, 1998. First Edition. Hard Bound, Cloth. Fine/Near Fine. This is a sequal to The Women of Brewster Place, about the life and times of a small urban encloave of black women and their families. Now we have the other side of the story: The men of Brewster Place; some of the men are Brother Jerome who speaks for everyone in Brewster Place when he plays the blues; Eugene, who battles convention and the almost irresistable pull of his family while being drawn toward a new self he does not yet understand; Moreland T. Woods, whose service to his fellow man is mocked by his own self-service; and Abshu, who finds that a little bit of humor will bring sweetness to the gathering dusk of a neighborhood. The most important man is Ben who-from beyond the grave, serves as a Greek chorus; he sees it all and comes as close as one can to understanding the men, and women, of Brewster Place. The dust jacket has a few wrinkles in the back. 173 pages, no marks or tears. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
