Hard Cover in Dust Jacket. 1968 Hardcover in DJ 1st ... Very Good condition ... previous owner's name written ink inside front, else Nice Clean gift giving quality , with Jacket protected in New non-stick clear Mylar sleeve ... 255 pages ... James Baldwin was born in Harlem, New York City, Aug. 2, 1924 , & died in 1987 ... He offered a vital literary voice during the era of civil rights activism in the 1950s and '60s .... Baldwin has been called passionate & violent, cryptic & probing , hostile & eloquent. He made himself a personification of his entire race - a living analogy of their struggle. His words have compelled, agitated & hypnotized a nation , & are now heard around the world. That is the public image ... Author Eckman has based this book on hours of recorded interviews with Baldwin & she presents a sensitive more personal look at the man, told largely in his own words ... There is the Baldwin who grew out of self-deprecation & a search for personal identity; the child who thought he was ugly & useless , overly self-conscious about his appearance, who couldn't find the love he needed to make his existence bearable ; & the man who claimed: ' I've been scared to death since I was born & I'll be scared until I die. But if you're scared to death, walk toward it. ' ... And there is the author whose tremendous impact on American literature and American life has until now not been fully measured. There is almost no harder task than to write a monograph on a celebrity, but this work is like an archaeological cut into the surface of the American dilemma of white / black identification . The treasure sought for is the passionate , vain, brilliant ,lovable Baldwin - but the dig down exposes the sexual, political & social seams of the United States in the 60s ...
