Itty Bitty Book Review: "Romance in Marseille"

 "Romance in Marseilles" by Claude McKay


I enjoyed all the crazy, wild, criminal characters in this novel. We have always enjoyed our times in Marseille and have had some wonderful bouillibaisse meals before heading on the night train to Paris. Claude McKay is known as a "Harlem Renaissance" poet although I see he has written a number of novels. He was born in Jamaica and moved to the US in 1912. 

I see the VPL has 16 items by him. I put a hold on a poetry book.
