GENTLEMAN JIGGER
Richaer Bruce Nugent
Written in 1928 - and never before published — Gentleman Jigger is a wickedly revealing satire of the leading lights of this vibrant time.
The story of two brothers. Aeon, who passes for white and becomes a famous poet, faces the conundrums of love across the colour line. Stuartt, who is openly homosexual joins the younger intellectuals of Harlem in defying authority figures, both black and white, at the notorious “Niggeratti Manor.”
