A Harlem Renaissance novel by Claude McKay. It follows Jake, a Black American worker and veteran, as he returns to Harlem and moves through its jazz clubs, rented rooms and working-class streets, alongside characters like Felice and Ray. It is worth listening for its vivid, unflinching portrait of Black urban life, desire and racial struggle in 1920s New York.
