A Raisin in the Sun
By Lorraine Hansberry
This edition presents the fully restored, uncut version of Hansberry’s landmark work with an introduction by Robert Nemiroff.
Lorraine Hansberry’s award-winning drama about the hopes and aspirations of a struggling, working-class family living on the South Side of Chicago connected profoundly with the psyche of Black America—and changed American theater forever. The play’s title comes from a line in Langston Hughes’s poem “Harlem,” which warns that a dream deferred might “dry up/like a raisin in the sun.”
