Sobre este artículo
NY: Dial Press, 1963. Bound in white cloth, stamped in red, in black and red with some light yellowing to extremes, in the (first state) dust jacket that is close to Fine, but shows one completely closed tear at top edge (not really visible). This is the scarce first printing of this book -- currently highly desirable book by Mr. Baldwin. The book is still as relevant today as it was over 50 years ago. 120 pp. . First Edition. Hard Cover. Very Good ++/Very Good ++.
Sinopsis
The Fire Next Time is a book by James Baldwin. It contains two essays: "My Dungeon Shook - Letter to my Nephew on the One-Hundredth Anniversary of Emancipation", and "Down At The Cross - Letter from a Region of My Mind". The first of these is written as a letter to Baldwin's 14-year-old nephew, discussing the central role of race in American history. The second essay deals with the relations between race and religion, focusing in particular on Baldwin's experiences with the Christian church as a youth, as well as the Islamic ideas of others in Harlem. Both essays had been previously published in The Progressive and The New Yorker before being published in book form.
