After August: Blues, August Wilson, and American Drama
Patrick Maley
Critics have long suggested that August Wilson, who called blues "the best literature we have as black Americans", appropriated blues music for his plays. Patrick Maley argues instead that Wilson was not a dramatist importing blues music into his plays; he was a bluesman, expressing a blues ethos through drama.
