Présentation Dancing With Strangers de Mel Watkins Format Broché
- Livre Science humaines et sociales, Lettres
Résumé :
Arresting prose and a provocative conclusion - challenging the idea that our destinies are fundamentally linked to race - distinguish this memoir of growing up black in the American Midwest in the turbulent 1930s and 1960s. Set in an Ohio steel town and an exclusive, upstate New York private university, Dancing with Strangers is an evocative remembrance of an American's coming of age during the decade preceding the sixties' revolutionary transformation of American society. A dramatic, novelistically rendered account, it is the story of an individual's triumphant struggle for personal identity during an era when conformity, class, race, and political xenophobia dominated the American landscape. Watkins's family fled Tennessee for Ohio before he was born, when his father pistol-whipped a white neighbor who attacked one of his sons. In Dancing with Strangers, Watkins looks back upon his own life in the midst of the nation's roiling social currents during the tumultuous times when Brown v. the Board of Education and the civil rights movement took hold. Whether Watkins is writing about his combative father's furious, if sometimes misguided, struggles to exert his manhood; his parents' continuous, sometimes violent, feuding; his much-admired brother, in and out of jail and drug addiction his entire life; his touching relationship with his grandmother whose stories inspired and transported him; or his own quest for identity through achievement within the sports and intellectual worlds, his prose soars. Throughout this memoir, Watkins gives eloquent expression to the belief, shared by many Americans who have themselves overcome difficult circumstances, that an individual's destiny and identityare shaped as much by his responses to personal challenges as by racial matters that too often are merely smoke screens.
