![]() No hi ha cap discussió a Converses sobre aquesta obra. Easily one of the best novels I have every read. ( ![]() I'm a fan of Crunch, one of the great characters in this book. I had the great pleasure of telling that to Mr. Baldwin at a book signing. So he signed my book, "To David, a fan of Crunch, peace, JB" Quite a thrill. I've only sought an autograph on two occasions. My other autograph is from the photographer Brassai. Both men have inspired me and my work. I need to re-read this. Absolutely the best. Also recommend Go Tell It to the Mountain. Am seeking first edition; especially signed Sense ressenyes | afegeix-hi una ressenya
The stark grief of a brother mourning a brother opens this novel with a stunning, unforgettable experience. Here, in a monumental saga of love and rage, Baldwin goes back to Harlem, to the church of his groundbreaking novel Go Tell It on the Mountain, to the homosexual passion of Giovanni's Room, and to the political fire that inflames his nonfiction work. Here, too, the story of gospel singer Arthur Montana and his family becomes both a journey into another country of the soul and senses-and a living contemporary history of black struggle in this land.
