Sobre este artículo
The most obviously autobiographical of Larsen's two novels, Quicksand is the story of a bi-racial young woman who sets out on a mission to to find the people among whom she will feel she belongs. In a letter to close personal friend Carl van Vechten, Larsen referred to the emotional experiences of the novel as "the awful truth", as she herself struggled with finding a sense of belonging between the worlds of her Danish mother and African American father. Larsen's first of two novels fell of print from until the '70s and is now considered a major work of the Harlem Renaissance and of 20th century African American literature.
