Giovanni’s Room är James Baldwins gripande roman om kärlek, identitet och skam. Den utspelar sig i 1950-talets Paris och följer amerikanen David, som kämpar med sin sexualitet och sin olyckliga relation med den italienske bartenden Giovanni. Genom Davids inre konflikt utforskar Baldwin begär, skuld och sökandet efter självacceptans med stark känslomässig intensitet.

First published in 1963, James Baldwin’s The Fire Next Time stabbed at the heart of America’s so-called “Negro problem.” As remarkable for its masterful prose as for its frank and personal account of the black experience in the United States, it is considered one of the most passionate and influential explorations of 1960s race relations, weaving thematic threads of love, faith, and family into a candid assault on the hypocrisy of the “land of the free.” Now, James Baldwin’s rich, raw, and ever relevant prose is reprinted with more than 100 photographs from Steve Schapiro, who traveled the American South with Baldwin for Life magazine. The encounter thrust Schapiro into the thick of the movement, allowing for vital, often iconic, images both of civil rights leaders—including Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Rosa Parks, Fred Shuttlesworth, and Jerome Smith—and such landmark events as the March on Washington and the Selma march. Rounding out the edition are Schapiro’s stories from the field, captions by journalist Marcia Davis, and an essay by Gloria Baldwin Karefa-Smart, who was with her brother James in Sierra Leone when he started to work on the story. The result is a remarkable visual and textual record of one of the most important and enduring struggles of the American experience. First published as a TASCHEN Collector’s Edition, now available in a pocket-sized Centennial Edition.

En av 1900-talets mest inflytelserika romaner»En av vår tids få riktiga författare.« Norman MailerDen unge amerikanen David friar till sin flickvän Helle, men hon är tveksam och lämnar honom i Paris för att i stället resa till Spanien och fundera över deras förhållande. Ensam, utan jobb och pengar, hamnar David på en bar där han träffar den vackra servitören Giovanni. Kvällen slutar med att David följer med Giovanni hem, och de två männen inleder en passionerad kärleksaffär. Paret tillbringar sina dagar vandrande genom Paris, nätterna i Giovannis nedgångna lägenhet. Det är första gången på länge David känner sig lycklig, men trots det vill han inte erkänna sin egen läggning och de begär han upplever. När Helle återvänder väljer han därför henne framför kärleken till Giovanni. Samtidigt tar Giovannis liv en dramatisk vändning. Giovannis rum [1956], James Baldwins andra roman, är en milstolpe inom queerlitteraturen och finns med på BBC:s lista över 100 romaner som format vår värld. I översättning av Martin Rogberg, med ett nyskrivet förord av Kristofer Folkhammar. JAMES BALDWIN [1924-1987] var en amerikansk författare och medborgarrättsaktivist. Han skrev romaner, pjäser, essäer och poesi. 1986 tilldelades han franska Hederslegionen.» Om Van Gogh var 1800-talets konstnärshelgon är James Baldwin 1900-talets.« Michael Ondaatje

Næste gang ilden er et personligt portræt af James Baldwins egen opvækst i Harlem og et brændende opgør med raceundertrykkelse. I to breve skrevet med lige dele vrede og ømhed, smerte og klarsyn stiller Baldwin spørgsmålet: Hvordan kan vi opnå en verden uden racediskrimination? Det ene brev er skrevet til hans dengang 14-årige nevø i anledning af hundredåret for slavernes frigørelse. Her afdækker Baldwin racismens mekanismer i amerikansk historie og viser, at USA er et samfund grundlagt på systematisk undertrykkelse af sorte amerikanere. I det andet brev diskuterer han forholdet mellem race og religion og går kritisk til både den kristne kirke – som han selv voksede op med og siden vendte ryggen – og Nation of Islam, der på det tidspunkt havde et godt tag i Harlem med tanker om etableringen af en sort stat. Næste gang ilden udkom i USA i 1963 og blev en vigtig bog i borgerrettighedsbevægelsen. Den blev udgivet på dansk samme år. Bogen er nu nyoversat af Niels Lyngsø og udkommer sammen med Hvis Beale Street kunne tale d. 2. august 2024, hvor James Baldwin ville være fyldt 100 år. Denne bog er oversat af Niels Lyngsø

Harlem, New York, i 1970’erne. 19-årige Tish og 22-årige Fonny har kendt hinanden hele livet. De er vokset op i det samme kvarter, har været barndomsvenner og en del af hinandens familier, er blevet forelsket og forlovet med hinanden. Og nu planlægger de deres fremtid sammen, men lykken brister pludseligt, da Fonny bliver anholdt og dømt for en forbrydelse, han ikke har begået.

For the first time in a collector's boxed set, the definitive three-volume Library of America James Baldwin edition gathering all his essential writings, including the collected essays and complete fiction. With the novel Go Tell It on the Mountain (1953), a distillation of his own experiences as a preacher's son in 1930s Harlem, and the essay collection Notes of a Native Son (1955), James Baldwin established himself as a prophetic voice of his era. Some such voices may grow fainter with the passage of time, but Baldwin remains an inescapable presence, not only a chronicler of his epoch but a thinker who helped shape it. One of the great modern prose stylists, he applied his passion, wit, and relentlessly probing intelligence to the fault lines and false fronts of American society while remaining true to his early credo: "One writes out of one thing only--one's own experience. Everything depends on how relentlessly one forces from this experience the last drop, sweet or bitter, it can possibly give."

"I am completely indebted to Jimmy Baldwin's prose. It liberated me as a writer."--Toni Morrison This collectible edition celebrates James Baldwin's 100th-year anniversary, probing the shortcomings of the American protest novel and the harmful representations of Black identity in film and fiction Originally published in Notes of a Native Son, the essays "Autobiographical Notes," "Everybody's Protest Novel," "Many Thousands Gone," and "Carmen Jones: The Dark is Light Enough," showcase Baldwin's incisive voice as a social and literary critic. "Autobiographical Notes" outlines Baldwin's journey as a Black writer and his hesitant transition from fiction to nonfiction. In the following essays, Baldwin explores the Black experience through the lens of popular media, critiquing the ways in which Black characters--in Harriet Beecher Stowe's novel Uncle Tom's Cabin, Richard Wright's novel Native Son, and the 1950s film Carmen Jones--are reduced to digestible caricatures. Everybody's Protest Novel: Essays is the first of three special editions in the James Baldwin centennial anniversary series. Through this collection, Baldwin examines the facade of progress present in the novels of Black oppression. These essays showcase Baldwin's profound ability to reveal the truth of the Black experience, exposing the failure of the protest novel, and the state of racial reckoning at the dawn of the Civil Rights Movement.
