The Beast of Bradhurst Avenue and Other Stories

Bag om The Beast of Bradhurst Avenue and Other Stories

Rediscover George S. Schuyler with a brand new collection of pulp fiction stories never before published in book form.George S. Schuyler was an African American journalist, social commentator and author with a very complicated legacy. Despite making history as the first Black American to publish a full-length work of satire and pioneering what is now known today as Afrofuturism, Schuyler's controversial political stance on race relations lead to his ostracization from the Black community and his near-erasure from African American literary history at large, with many of his works facing limited publication or no publication at all.The Beast of Bradhurst Avenue and Other Stories collects four novellas previously serialized in the Pittsburgh Courier that have never been published in book form. Including Sugar Hill (1933), Devil Town (1933), Golden Gods (1933-1934), and the titular The Beast of Bradhurst Avenue (1934), this volume is both a celebration of Black pulp fiction and a reintroduction of George S. Schuyler to the modern reader. Since our inception in 2020, Mint Editions has kept sustainability and innovation at the forefront of our mission.
