These engaging and wonderfully alive letters paint an intimate portrait of two of the most important and influential figures of the Harlem Renaissance. Carl Van Vechten?older, established, and white?was at first a mentor to the younger, gifted, and black Langston Hughes. But the relationship quickly grew into a great friendship?and for nearly four decades the two men wrote to each other expressively and constantly.
