Overview: CHESTER HIMES began his writing career while serving in the Ohio State Penitentiary for armed robbery from 1929 to 1936. From his first novel, If He Hollers Let Him Go (1945), Himes dealt with the social and psychological repercussions of being black in a white-dominated society. Beginning in 1953, Himes moved to Europe, where he met and was strongly influenced by Richard Wright. It was in France that he began his best-known series of crime novels–including Cotton Comes to Harlem (1965)–featuring two Harlem policemen. As with Himes’s earlier work, the series is characterized by violence and grisly, sardonic humour. He died in Spain in 1984.
