From the Briarpatch File On Context, Procedure, and American Identityby Murray, AlbertStated First edition
New York: Pantheon, 2001. Stated First edition. Hardcover. New/New. In From the Briarpatch File - a gathering of erudite, provocative, and iconoclastic essays, reviews, and interviews - Albert Murray approaches contemporary America through its artistic expressions of itself and through the inventiveness of his own thinking and experience. He writes about New York in the 1920s and about the beginnings of his career as a writer. He gives us profound assessments of the achievements of Duke Ellington and William Faulkner. He outlines the responsibilities of the black educated elite and discusses the near-tragic, near-comic essence of the blues. His subject is no less than the life of America today; the clarity of the singularity of his vision, thought, and language are no less than stunning. 195 pages. 5 1/4" x 8 1/4"
