Банджо Роман без сюжета

The novel by American writer of Jamaican descent Claude McKay (1890–1948) "Banjo" is one of the works that laid the foundation for the Harlem Renaissance. Autobiographically, McKay's hero — musician Lincoln Agrippa Daily, nicknamed Banjo — wanders through Marseille in the company of pimps, the poor, and black people living far from their homeland, seeking pleasures and adventures. The novel is filled with multinational and memorable characters that the author encountered during his travels around the world. This book is both a passionate manifesto, a condemnation of racial prejudice, and a vivid, bright description of the lives of colorful Marseille vagrants who find themselves in comic situations.
