This bundle includes two SIGNED essential early novels by John Edgar Wideman, one of the most important voices in late-20th-century American literature. Both books are paperback editions.
Sent for You Yesterday
A lyrical, jazz-inflected novel set in Homewood, Wideman’s fictionalized Pittsburgh neighborhood. Blending memory, music, folklore, and oral history, the novel explores Black family life, inheritance, loss, and survival across generations. Wideman’s language moves between realism and myth, capturing the emotional texture of a community shaped by migration, labor, and love.
Hiding Place
Wideman’s debut novel, centered on a Black family navigating poverty, crime, and resilience in an urban American landscape. With stark psychological insight and compassion, the book examines isolation, masculinity, and the search for dignity within systems designed to confine. Often read as the foundation for Wideman’s later Homewood works.
