One of the most prolific and influential African American
writers, James Baldwin was for many a harbinger of hope, a man who
traversed the genres of art-writing novels, essays, and poetry.
James Baldwin Now takes advantage of the latest
interdisciplinary work to understand the complexity of Baldwin's
vision and contributions without needing to name him as exclusively
gay, expatriate, black, or activist. It was, in fact, Baldwin who
said, "it is quite impossible to write a worthwhile novel about a
Jew or a Gentile or a Homosexual, for people refuse . . . to
function in so neat and one-dimensional a fashion." McBride has
gathered a unique group of new scholars to interrogate Baldwin's
life, his presence, and his political thought and work. James
Baldwin Now finally addresses the man who spoke, and continues to
speak, so eloquently to crucial issues of the twentieth
century.
