Description: Offers a European view of racial attitudes in the US during the era of the Harlem Renaissance and Jim Crow, with relevance to today's Black Lives Matter and #MeToo movements.

Brief description: ARTHUR RUNDT (1881-1939) was a German author, journalist, and theater director

Review Quotes: Even though Höyng and Mellor's careful translation conveys the fact that this novel was written almost one hundred years ago, Marylin, unfortunately, is still a highly relevant text today. ...Because of its undeniable parallels to today's state of race relations in the US, Marylin deserves to be widely read.-- "DELOS"
