WRIGHT
continued from B-2
Revolutionnaire, then founding the
.Franco-American fellowship. He
also became increasingly involved in
drama, forming the Cercle Interna
tional du Theatre et du Cinema with
Jean Cocteau and taking the lead role
of Bigger Thomas in the film version
of Native Son.
In 1954,' Black P ert A Record
o/Reactions in al.andofl'athos, was
published by Harper and Brothers,
based on Wright's extensive tour of
Africa, and in 1956, The Color Cur
tain: A Record on the Bandung Con
ference, was Published in the U.S. by
World Publishers, to favorable
review . He then decided to under-
I take a study of Spanish culture, driv
ing his Citroen 4000 miles through
Spain to conduct research. The
result, Pagan Spain, was publi hed
by Harper and Brothers in 1957.
White Man, Listens, a collection of
essay based on Wright's lectures,
was also published that year (by
Doubleday, where editor Edward
I Aswell had moved) and was critical
ly acclaimed by Black pre s in
theU.S.
In the late 1950s, however,
Wright's fortunes declined. He
found himself resented and alienated
by the Black communi ty in Pari ,
which was troubled by di sension,
: Financial concerns also plagued
him; the sale of Paaan Soain and his
· new Mi is ippi novel, The Lona
Dream (Doubleday, 1958), were
slow. He became frustrated by what
he felt was growing American politi
cal influence in French life. In 1959,
Wright attempted to leave France
and move to England, but was denied
a resident visa without explanation. .
He began to uffer health
· problems and ought treannent at
, American Hospital in Pari . He
recovered adequately to travel brief
ly to Holland and record a erie of
interview for French radio, but fell
, ill once again in September of 1960.
.. He di d of a heart attack on Novem
: ber28, and was cremated, along with
, a copy of Black Boy. Hi ashes are
interred at Pere Lachaise cemetery in
Pari .
