  • More about Outsider


Richard Wright is a powerful writer who is courageous and able to look into areas that nobody at the time was willing to look at. Toni Morrison's Cross Damon is disenchanted and at odds with society, and his idealism and sense of alienation have driven him to drink and reflection. When Cross is mistakenly reported to have died, he is suddenly free to put his ideals to the test, leading to a reign of terror and destruction. The Outsider is a counterpart to Wright's 1940 novel Native Son, and its publication established Wright as America's most daring and damning writer.

Powerful as [Richard Wright] was - is - as a writer, nobody can surpass him in doing certain kinds of writing. He is courageous - he was able to look into areas that nobody at that time was willing to look at.
Toni Morrison Cross Damon is disenchanted. At odds with society, and with himself, his idealism and sense of alienation have driven him to drink and incessant reflection. But when Cross is mistakenly reported to have died, he is suddenly free to put his ideals to the test - and a reign of terror and destruction ensues.
A counterpart to Wright's 1940 novel, Native Son, The Outsider is Wright's existential masterpiece. An epic exploration of criminality and oppression, its publication established Wright as America's most daring, and damning writers.
