"Herb Boyd has written an original and extremely valuable book that
captures the genius and complexity of James Baldwin, one of the
greatest writers of the twentieth century."
-- Sondra Kathryn Wilson, author of "Meet Me at the Theresa"
"Herb Boyd takes Baldwin away from the ivory towers of literary
scholars and elites, and centers him with, and within, the
experience of his people. Required reading."
-- Todd Steven Burroughs, Ph.D., journalist
"Herb Boyd's study of Baldwin and Harlem features vivid literary
portraits of a powerful writer in sometimes controversial dialogue
with other major figures of his era. It also centers Baldwin's
Harlem in a memorable, necessary way. Boyd's book is fascinating
and authoritative on a subject that he knows well and writes about
with insight and sympathy."
-- Arnold Rampersad, author of "Ralph Ellison: A Biography"
