This is the true story of the renowned African American author Richard Wright and his determination to borrow books from the public library that turned him away because of his color.
As a young black man in the segregated South of the 1920s, Wright was hungry to explore new worlds through books, but was forbidden from borrowing them from the library. This touching account tells of his love of reading, and how his unwavering perseverance, along with the help of a co-worker, came together to make Richard's dream a reality.
Translated from Richard Wright and the Library Card, Richard Wright y el carné de biblioteca shares a poignant turning point in the life of a young man who became one of this country's most brilliant writers, the author of Native Son and Black Boy.
