Acerca de este título

After arriving on the American literary scene with novels of scathing social protest like If He Hollers Let Him Go and The Lonely Crusade, Chester Himes created a pioneering pair of dangerously effective African-American sleuths: Grave Digger Jones and Coffin Ed Johnson, Harlem's toughest detective duo, who must carry the day against an absurdist world of racism and class warfare.

The Big Gold Dream is the explosive and shocking hardboiled classic that explores the shadowy underbelly of New York as a urban civil war erupts on the side streets of Harlem, pitting murderers and prostitutes against corrupt politicians and racist white detectives. Grave Digger Jones and Coffin Ed Johnson attempt to maintain some kind of order - in the neighborhood they have sworn to protect - in a world gone mad around them.

Reseñas de la crítica

"Himes is a writer with an enormous capacity to record sensuous life as it is experienced from one moment to the next." ( The New York Times)
"Coffin Ed Johnson and Grave Digger Jones roar into action in a case on the raging streets of Harlem.... Chester Himes is the best writer of mayhem yarns since Raymond Chandler." ( San Francisco Chronicle)
"Narrator Dion Graham excels as each of the colorful characters as he takes on their lively personalities. Also, his rendering of the description in this gritty glimpse of a bygone Harlem adds to the ambiance—and fun." ( Audiofile)
