With lyrical precision, psychological directness, resonating symbolic power, and a rage that is at once unrelenting and compassionate, Baldwin chronicles a fourteen-year-old boy's discovery of the terms of his identity as the stepson of the minister of a Pentecostal storefront church in Harlem. Baldwin's rendering of his protagonist's spiritual, sexual, and moral struggle toward self-invention opened new possibilities in the American language and in the way Americans understood themselves.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eJAMES BALDWIN (1924-1987) was a novelist, essayist, playwright, poet, and social critic.
