None of his creations won the hearts and minds of his readers as did Jesse B. Semple, better known as Simple. Simple speaks as an Everyman for African Americans in Uncle Sam's America. With great wit, he expounds on topics as varied as women, Gospel music, and sports heroes--but always keeps one foot planted in the realm of politics and race. In recent years, readers have been able to appreciate Simple's situational humor as well as his poignant questions about social injustice in \u003ci\u003eThe Best of Simple\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eThe Return of Simple\u003c\/i\u003e. Now they can, once again, enjoy the last of Hughes's original Simple books.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLangston Hughes \u003c\/b\u003e(1902-67) was born in Joplin, Missouri, and long resided in New York City's Harlem.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 208\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.55 x 8.24 x 5.45 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e May 15, 2000\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52522081943859,"sku":"9780809086818","price":26.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/NmR4bDVtYnVxK25HOEFQRXQrcTFyZz09.webp?v=1760543690","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/en-ca\/products\/simples-uncle-sam-with-a-new-introduction-by-akiba-sullivan-harper-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
