A
master
chronicler
of
the
African-American
experience,
Richard
Wright
brilliantly
expanded
his
literary
horizons
with
Pagan
Spain,
originally
published
in
1957.
An
amalgam
of
expert
travel
reportage,
dramatic
monologue,
and
arresting
sociological
critique,
Pagan
Spain
serves
as
a
pointed
and
still-relevant
commentary
on
the
grave
human
dangers
of
oppression
and
governmental
corruption.The
Spain
Richard
Wright
visited
in
the
mid-twentieth
century
was
not
the
romantic
locale
of
song
and
story,
but
a
place
of
tragic
beauty
and
dangerous
contradictions.
The
portrait
he
offers
in
Pagan
Spain
is
a
blistering,
powerful,
yet
scrupulously
honest
depiction
of
a
land
and
people
in
turmoil,
caught
in
the
strangling
dual
grip
of
cruel
dictatorship
and
what
Wright
saw
as
an
undercurrent
of
primitive faith.
