From the Paper:
"Langston Hughes was an important writer during the period known as the Harlem Renaissance (1920-1930). During that time, several black writers rose to prominence while expressing their views on the African-American experience. Those writers wanted to show the pain and suffering of their experience while at the same time showing the hopes and strengths of the black culture as a whole. Langston Hughes' "Not Without Laughter", published in 1930, was quickly acknowledged as a representative novel of the Harlem Renaissance. Although he had published some poetry before, Not Without Laughter was Hughes' first novel. Critics hailed the book as an important work because it accurately expresses the life of rural Negroes during the early twentieth century; furthermore, it was praised for being a great work of fiction, with a meaningful plot and memorable characters.
