"BUBBER GOES TO HEAVEN" PUBLISHED BY OXFORD UNIVERSITY PRESS Written by Arna Bontemps in the early 1930s. This highly orignal tale recounts ten-year old Bubber's hunting trip with his Uncle Demus gone awry. This previously unpublished children's book showcases the full range of Arna Bontemps's prodigious talent. The gentle lyricism and delicate humor of the story combine with the Alabama locale, biblical references, folk heritage, and a faithful recreation of the Deep South black dialect to produce a richly personal narrative. |
