"Nakedness has no color: this can come as news only to those who have never covered, or been covered by, another naked human being": First Edition of James Baldwin's No Name in the Street; Signed by Him
First edition of Baldwin's classic collection of nonfiction writings. Octavo, original cloth. Boldly signed by James Baldwin on the half-title page. Fine in a near fine dust jacket. Jacket design by Bob Korn. Jacket photograph by Bob Adelman.
This stunningly personal document and extraordinary history of the turbulent sixties and early seventies displays James Baldwin's fury and despair more deeply than any of his other works. In vivid detail he remembers the Harlem childhood that shaped his early consciousness, the later events that scored his heart with pain—the murders of Martin Luther King and Malcolm X, his sojourns in Europe and in Hollywood, and his return to the American South to confront a violent America face-to-face. “More eloquent than W. E. B. DuBois, more penetrating than Richard Wright.... It contains truth that cannot be denied" (The Atlantic Monthly).
