Over ninety years after its publication, it remains a critically acclaimed literary work and still invokes a fresh, contemporary feeling and offers a powerful reflection of the Black experience. The title poem, \"The Weary Blues,\" echoes the sounds of the blues, while \"Dream Variation\" rings with joyfulness. The Epilogue, which mimics Walt Whitman's opening line, \"I, too, sing America,\" is prophetic and relevant today. Hughes writes clearly and colorfully, and his words remain prophetic and relevant today.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 84g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 127 x 202 x 18 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780486849010\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Langston Hughes","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44096200540410,"sku":"9780486849010","price":3.65,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1647341581387_book.jpg?v=1647359787","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/the-weary-blues-9780486849010","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
