Du Bose Heyward Libri

The country bunny attains the exalted position of Easter Bunny in spite of her responsibilities as the mother of twenty-one children.

Set in the vibrant community of Catfish Row, the story explores the lives of disabled beggar Porgy and the beautiful Clara, who faces struggles with love and survival. The narrative delves into themes of hope, resilience, and the quest for freedom amidst poverty and hardship. As Porgy fights for Clara's affection and navigates the challenges posed by the menacing Crown, the novel captures the spirit of the African American experience in the early 20th century, blending rich character development with poignant social commentary.

To the surprise of many, the little country cottontail becomes one of the special Easter bunnies even though she has twenty-one children of her very own.

Die Geschichte um Porgy und Bess, vertont von George Gershwin, erlangte Weltruhm. Dubose Heyward schildert in seiner Romanvorlage das Leben von Porgy, einem 'Negerkrüppel', und der schönen Bess. Er zeigt Schwarze als komplexe Menschen mit Würde und sozialen Herausforderungen, fern von Klischees, und dokumentiert die Kultur der Gullahs.
