Descripción Hardcover. Condición: new. Hardcover. From one of the great American writers of the twentieth centurya coming-of-age story about a fourteen-year-old boy questioning the terms of his identity, the racism he faces, and the double-edged role of religion in his life. With an Introduction by Edwidge Danticat, award-winning author of Everything Inside.Vivid imagery lavish attention to details [A] feverish story. The New York TimesOriginally published in 1953, Go Tell It on the Mountainbased in part on James Baldwins childhood in Harlemwas his first major work. With a potent combination of lyrical compassion and resonant rage, he portrays fourteen-year-old John Grimes, the stepson of a fire-breathing and abusive Pentecostal preacher in Harlem during the Depression. The action of this short novel spans a single day in Johns life, and yet manages to encompass on an epic scale his familys troubled past and his own inchoate longings for the future, set against a shining vision of a city where he both does and does not belong. Baldwins story illuminates the racism his characters face as well as the double-edged role religion plays in their lives, both oppressive and inspirational. In prose that mingles gritty vernacular cadences with exalted biblical rhythms, Baldwins rendering of his young protagonists struggle to invent himself pioneered new possibilities in American language and literature. Originally published in 1953, this is "a hardcover edition of James Baldwin's classic coming-of-age novel set in Harlem in the 1930s, with a new introduction by Edwidge Danticat"-- Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
