Requirements: ePUB Reader, 1.4MB
Overview: ames Baldwin is a widely taught and anthologized author. His short story “Sonny’s Blues” remains a perennial favorite in literature anthologies, and all of his essay collections and novels are stillin print. His first essay collection, Notes of a Native Son, is a seminal work that led a new generation of African American writers from beneath the shadow of Richard Wright.
The Fire NextTime is widely held as one of the most profound and accurate articulations of black consciousness during the Civil Rights movement. It is difficult to imagine teaching a survey of African American literature or considering the development of black intellectual thought in the twentieth century without mentioning Baldwin.
For more than half a century, readers and critics alike have agreed thatBaldwin is a major African American writer. What they do not agree on is why. Because of his artistic and intellectual complexity, his work resists easy categorization, and Baldwin scholarship, consequently, spans the critical horizon.
