1922166022Boston: B. J. Brimmer 1922. Inscribed to "the greatest Black orator of his day" First edition first printing presentation copy inscribed by the author in the month after publication on the first blank "Dec. 27 - '22. To Mr. Roscoe C. Simmons shall we not dedicate this page to this day which we must regard happy and signal. Read page 15 from The Heart of a Woman & thank every God for your exclusion. Sincerely Georgia Douglas Johnson". Inscribed copies are rare: we have traced just one other. Johnson's page reference is to the poem "Repulse" which was published in her first volume of poetry The Heart of a Woman and Other Poems in 1918. Although we have not been able to identify what happened on the "happy and signal" day of this inscription the implication of Johnson's inscription must be in reference to the refrain "Nobody cares when I am glad. Nobody cares when I am sad" suggesting that Simmons as a caring friend was excluded from these. "Roscoe Conkling Simmons 1881-1951 was the greatest Black orator of his day blessed with the ability to electrify audiences for hour after hour. Americans nationwide knew of him through his electioneering for the Republican party and his lecture tours. Blacks meanwhile read his column in the Chicago Defender the nation's most popular Black newspaper. Simmons was an experienced political player and functioned as an unofficial adviser to Presidents Harding Coolidge and Hoover. Through his pack of associates - Black America's most powerful businessmen and editors entertainers and racketeers - he forged close links with key Black organizations participating in the affairs of fraternities churches and educational institutions. Therefore when white Republicans needed help in rallying Northern Black voters Simmons was the fixer they summoned" Kaye pp. 79-80. Johnson a nationally recognized figure of the Harlem Renaissance wrote from Washington DC where she had an immense influence on New Negro writers from all over the country in part by holding a literary salon in her home. Referred to as the "Saturday Nighters" the attendees included many prominent African-American writers including Countee Cullen W. E. B DuBois Alain Locke Langston Hughes and Jessie Fauset. She provided a much-needed venue in which these authors "read their works exchanged criticisms and argued views on literature art and politics and found the nurture encouragement and reception that Black Washington seemed unwilling to extend" Edwards p. 157. Johnson's literary salon had standards; as Washington journalist and poet J. C. Byars put it "if dull ones come she weeds them out gently effectively" Hull p. 166. Works by both Simmons and Johnson were included in the 1920 publication The Dunbar Speaker and Entertainer edited by Alice Moore Dunbar-Nelson. The Heart of a Woman Cornhill 1918 had been "criticized in some quarters because it did not contain enough 'racially conscious' poems Perhaps in response to such criticism her next book Bronze: A Book of Verse 1922 is much concerned with issues of race as well as gender" ANB. Both works were published by the African American poet and literary critic William Stanley Braithwaite who founded the publishing firm B. J. Brimmer in 1921 having left Cornhill when Brookes More took control and stopped publishing African American poets: "to be recognized by Braithwaite was to receive a significant imprimatur" Kenny J. Williams quoted in Brooker & Thacker p. 316. Octavo. Original white cloth-backed paper covered boards printed paper spine label spine and front cover lettered in black. With rear flap and rear panel of dust jacket loosely inserted. A little wear to extremities minor marks to boards. A very good copy notably well preserved.

1922140943853Boston: B. J. Brimmer Company 1922. First Edition. Near Fine. First edition first printing. Signed by Georgia Douglas Johnson on the front free endpaper and inscribed to author and playwright Kenneth Phillips Britton. iv 101 pp. Bound in publisher's brown cloth with paper title label; one of two variants of undetermined priority. <p>Near Fine with light rubbing to cloth at corners and spine ends light spotting to top of top edge of textblock paper spine label and pages toned hinge following front free endpaper is slightly exposed. Scarce.<br /> <p>The second book of poetry by the influential Harlem Renaissance figure and one of the earliest female African American playwrights in which she explores motherhood and being a woman of color. Johnson's husband did not approve of her literary ambitions and insisted she focus on domestic affairs. He died three years after the publication of this book; Johnson was left a widow at age 45 struggling to support two teenage boys. She wrote an estimated 28 plays most of which were unpublished during her lifetime due to her gender and race as well as her refusal to give the plays what she considered unrealistically happy endings.
