The author of LOST IN THE CITY, THE KNOWN WORLD, and ALL AUNT HAGAR'S CHILDREN has won the PEN/Hemingway Prize, the Pulitzer Prize, a 'Genius' Grant from the MacArthur Foundation, and acclaim from readers and reviewers alike. In EDWARD P. JONES: NEW ESSAYS, seven literary critics come together to explore each of Jones's extraordinary books in the first evaluation of his entire body of work. Also featuring a detailed biography of Jones and a discussion of his lesser-known early short stories, criticism, and memoirs, this volume is the perfect introduction to one of the brightest stars in the American literary firmament.
