The Conjure-man Dies by Rudolph Fisher
Originally published in 1932, this is the first known mystery novel to be written by a black American. It tells the story of a native African king who settles in Harlem in the 1930s. He becomes a conjure-man', a fortune teller, a mysterious figure who remains shrouded in darkness whilst his clients sit directly across from him bathed in light. A complex mystery begins when a client learns that he is in fact speaking to a dead man - the conjure-man has met his fate...'| SKU | Unavailable |
