Publisher's Synopsis

Journey's End is a novel written by Cecil Brown, which tells the story of a young African American man named Johnny Williams who leaves his hometown in the South to pursue his dreams of becoming a writer in New York City. The book is set in the 1940s and explores the themes of race, identity, and the pursuit of the American Dream.As Johnny navigates the challenges of life in New York, he is confronted with the realities of racism and discrimination, both in the literary world and in his personal life. He struggles to find his place in a society that seems determined to keep him down, while also grappling with the complexities of his own identity as a black man in America.Throughout the book, Brown paints a vivid picture of life in both the South and the North during this tumultuous time in American history. He explores the ways in which race and class intersect to shape the experiences of individuals like Johnny, who are trying to make their way in a world that is often hostile to their very existence.Ultimately, Journey's End is a powerful and thought-provoking novel that offers a unique perspective on the African American experience in the mid-twentieth century. It is a poignant and moving story that will resonate with readers of all backgrounds and ages.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
