About

A box set of James Baldwin's principal novels, featuring “Go Tell It on the Mountain”, “Giovanni's Room”, and “If Beale Street Could Talk.”

Originally published in 1953, “Go Tell It on the Mountain” was James Baldwin's first major work, based in part on his own childhood. With lyrical precision and a rage that is at once unrelenting and compassionate, Baldwin chronicles a fourteen-year-old boy's discovery of the terms of his identity as the stepson of the minister of a Pentecostal storefront church in Harlem.

“Giovanni's Room” is set in the Paris of the 1950s, where a young American expatriate finds himself caught between his repressed desires and conventional morality. One of the first novels to openly explore the theme of homosexuality, it paved the way for generations of gay and lesbian novelists.

And “If Beale Street Could Talk” is a stunning love story about a young Black woman whose life is torn apart when her lover is wrongly accused of a crime, a profoundly moving novel about love in the face of injustice that is as socially resonant today as it was when it was first published.

This stunningly designed slipcase with art by Baldwin's friend and contemporary Beauford Delaney will make the perfect perennial gift and keepsake.
