Waiting For Sweet Betty
Author: Major, Clarence
Paperback
Copper Canyon Press
ISBN: 1556591799
In Waiting for Sweet Betty, Major watches the world with careful longing to capture the exchanges and conflicts between person and place. Just as a painter juxtaposes colors and shapes, Major does the same with words, often writing as an outsider in foreign places. He shifts perspective away from the self, allowing words to play off one another subtly with puns, inverted/subverted cliches, and sweet bop soundings so that his vision might become anyone's. His subtle, conversational style, is at once humble, playful, humorous, and studied, and his stories can be seen as well as heard.

Clarence Major and His Art

Portraits of an African American Postmodernist
Edited by Bernard W. Bell
Introduction.
Although Clarence Major's poetry is known in some circles and his novels in others, the full range of his work is neither widely known nor generally taught, even in black institutions. Poet, novelist, essayist, editor, anthologist, lexicographer, and painter, Major is one of the most compelling, challenging, prolific, and multitalented contemporary American artists of African descent. Inspired as a teenager by the impressionistic paintings of van Gogh and the symbolist poetry of Rimbaud, as well as by such black writers as Jean Toomer, Richard Wright, Chester Himes, and Willard Motley, Major has produced a collection of art whose trajectory suggests the complex dynamics of his transgressive voice and double consciousness as an African American postmodernist artist. By transgressive I mean boldly moving beyond traditional literary limits and cultural boundaries in experimenting with different, occasionally multiple, narrative voices. Although

All-Night Visitors
- Book Review, by Major, Clarence
From the Publisher

First published in 1969 in severely abridged form, Clarence Major's first novel is now available in an unexpurgated edition that restores the full text of his critically acclaimed and controversial work. Written in first-person narrative, All-Night Visitors is the riveting and compelling story of Eli Bolton - orphan, college dropout, Vietnam veteran, and sexual voyager - as he struggles to establish a meaningful self-identity in a chaotic and bigoted world.
From The Critics
Library Journal

Major's first novel, originally published in an expurgated edition in 1969, is finally presented intact. The disturbing story, which details the struggles of a young African American man, is filled with "violence, sex, and rage, and Major's graphic descriptions are not for the squeamish."(LJ 10/15/98)

Major, Clarence: Surfaces and Masks: A Poem
Minneapolis, MN: Coffee House Press, 1988. From the back cover: "In 'Surfaces and Masks,' Clarence Major becomes heir to the great tradition of 'American-goes-to-Europe' novels of James and Twain. Major is a pointillist, impressionist and breakneck historian, creating a tapestry that utilizes and satirizes his chosen subject, Venice...A multifacedted portrait in a funhouse mirror, 'Surfaces and Masks' becomes a reevaluation of what it means to be an American and a black writer in this century, while sourrounded by the decay of the past." This is a review copy, with a press release and photocopies of various journal and newspaper reviews laid in. The entire book has a bend/warp to it, with slight wear at extremities.. First Edition. Wrappers. Very Good.. Catalogs: Poetry. (Inventory #001568)

    Book Description
    Poet, novelist, essayist, editor, anthologist, lexicographer, and painter, Clarence Major is one of the most challenging, prolific, yet underappreciated contemporary African American artists. This collection combines poetry, prose, and art by Major with critical essays by leading scholars that showcase Major's aesthetic movement across literary, cultural, and political boundaries and illuminate the complex relationship between the artist's writing and painting. Although Major's artistic vision is grounded in the historical experiences of black and Native American peoples, he boldly experiments with crossing boundaries of all types. His use of different narrative voices is evidence of what editor Bernard Bell calls Major's "double consciousness" as an African American artist. This collection highlights the breadth of Major's work, his transformation into a postmodern artist, and the hybrid voices of his literary and visual productions. By presenting Major's poetry, novels, and paintings alongside critical interpretations of these works, this book makes possible a long-overdue examination of a multitalented artist.

    The Book That Changed My Life Clarence Major Clarence Major was a Finalist for the 1999 National Book Award for Poetry for Configurations The book that influenced me the earliest was A Season in Hell by Arthur Rimbaud. I read it when I was eighteen and it changed my life-changed my way of seeing the world, opened up new possibilities of perception, changed the way I saw words and the arrangement of words. Other books that left an early and great impression on me were Raymond Radiguet's, those of Faulkner, Hemingway and Mark Twain. Sincere regards, Clarence Major Site design and graphics by:
