Description
James Arthur Baldwin, b. August 2, 1924 - d. November 30, 1987, was an American novelist, writer, playwright, poet, essayist and civil rights activist.
Baldwin's novels and plays fictionalize fundamental personal questions and dilemmas amid complex social and psychological pressures thwarting the equitable integration of not only blacks, but also of gay and bisexual men, while depicting some internalized obstacles to such individuals' quests for acceptance. Such dynamics are prominent in Baldwin's second novel, written well before gay rights were widely espoused in America: Giovanni's Room (1956).
