La storia del negro in America è la storia dell'America. Non è una bella storia' La rivoluzionaria raccolta di saggi di James Baldwin lo ha reso la voce della sua generazione. Spaziando da Harlem negli anni '40, film, romanzi, suo padre predicatore e le sue esperienze a Parigi, catturano la complessità della vita dei neri all'alba del movimento per i diritti civili con arguzia effervescente e saggezza profetica. 'Un classico. In un'America divisa, le critiche infuocate di James Baldwin risuonano di nuovo' Washington Post 'Audace e provocatorio, satiricamente divertente' Robert McCrum, Guardian 'Ha consolidato la sua reputazione di veggente culturale. Notes of a Native Son resiste come la sua opera fondamentale e la sua più grande' Time.

Born in Harlem in 1924, James Baldwin was a novelist, essayist, playwright, poet, social critic and the author of more than twenty books. His first novel, Go Tell It on the Mountain, appeared in 1953 to excellent reviews, and his essay collection The Fire Next Time was a bestseller that made him an influential figure in the civil rights movement. Baldwin spent many years in France, where he moved to escape the racism and homophobia of the United States. He died in 1987.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. A breakthrough work of social and cultural criticism from one of the foremost intellectuals of his eraWritten during the 1940s and early 1950s, when Baldwin was only in his twenties, the essays collected in Notes of a Native Son capture a view of black life and black thought at the dawn of the civil rights movement. Writing as an artist, activist, and social critic, Baldwin probes the complex condition of being black in America - from life in Harlem, to the protest novel, movies, and the experience of African Americans abroad - and many of his observations have proven almost prophetic.This book inaugurated Baldwin as one of the leading interpreters of the dramatic social changes erupting in the United States in the twentieth century and it is the book that established Baldwin's voice as a social critic. In an age of Black Lives Matter, Baldwin's essays are as powerful today as when they were first written.
