Description: Step into the intricate and thought-provoking journey of Vincent O. Carter with the 1973 hardcover edition of "The Bern Book: A Record of a Voyage of the Mind." This extraordinary travelogue transcends mere storytelling, morphing into a compelling memoir and a profound meditation on race and identity in midcentury Europe and America. Within its pages, Carter, a trailblazing African-American writer, reveals a vivid tapestry of his life after settling in Bern, Switzerland, in 1953. Engagingly penned, the book captures his encounters with the ever-present "hated question" about his choice of relocation and weaves in tales of travel, war, and the deeply personal exploration of self-worth.
