Description

Un crítico francés, que afirmaba que Himes pasaría a la historia como el escritor negro más importante del siglo, consideraba la novela inconclusa Plan B un legado delirante que exploraba el odio implacable existente entre negros y blancos. Efectivamente, la lógica y la perspicacia de Himes son en ella aterradoras, y el resultado es una historia furiosa y violenta, una auténtica parábola incandescente de la locura racial, además de una retrospectiva de la historia americana. Plan B es un libro duro que deja al lector con un regusto persistente en la boca, una muestra excelente de la peculiar mezcla de surrealismo y humor a la que recurría Himes para sobrellevar los tormentos que debió de sentir por una vida entera enfrentado a la injusticia de las políticas raciales norteamericanas.
