Description:
New York: The Dial Press, 1979. Fine in fine slipcase.. Signed limited first edition of Baldwin's last and longest novel, an attempt to "face [his] own legends," built around the story of a Black musician's life told by his brother. Baldwin's epic and ambitious late novel, written from the author's house in St-Paul-de-Vence, works toward a glimpse of a "utopian domestic space occupied by two black men in love" (Zaborowska) in its final pages: a much longed for, hard-won, and briefly held space for work and happiness. "It was beautiful to watch them; freedom is an extraordinary spectacle." 9'' x 6''. Original burgundy cloth, gilt-lettered spine and front board. All edges gilt, cream endpapers. In original burgundy cloth slipcase, lettered in gilt to one side. 597, [1] pages. Signed by Baldwin on limitation page, number 258 of 500 specially printed signed and numbered copies.
