By: James Baldwin     
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.”

THE JAMES BALDWIN COLLECTION includes:

Collected Essays (LOA #98)
Notes of a Native Son
Nobody Knows My Name
The Fire Next Time
No Name in the Street
The Devil Finds Work
other essays

Early Novels & Stories (LOA #97)
Go Tell It on the Mountain
Giovanni's Room
Another Country
Going to Meet the Man (including "Sonny's Blues")

Later Novels (LOA #272)
Tell Me How Long the Train's Been Gone
If Beale Street Could Talk
Just Above My Head

Edited by Toni Morrison (#97 & 98) and Darrly Pinckney (#272), each volume contains a textual essay, a chronology of Baldwin's life and career, and detailed notes.

What a great fun purchase!
How fun this jacket was!! Fit true to size. (XL pictured). Made well. Sequins help up well-they didn’t fall off. Bright color. Nice covered buttons with extras! Would definitely buy again. Got tons of compliments at event we attended. Paired great with dress shirt, bow tie, black jeans and gold light up shoes we also found on Amazon. Price point was great compared to others. Husband wears XL and this was very comfortable when sitting and also when buttoned standing up.

Jazzy!
Looked fine and fit just right. Sequins do rub the neck a little, if the shirt collar isn't high enough. Really got a jazzy feel to it.

Fit great, good price, and fast shipping for a last minute NYE dinner
Let me start by saying that I had very low expectations, all I truly cared about was getting something “blingy” as fast as possible for a last minute New Years Eve dinner. I was impressed by the speed of arrival, price & floored by the quality. Now of course, this is NOT a tailored $300 jacket, but it was great for our evening. Did not shed any sequins, no problems with wrinkles, and didn’t have any weird smells. My husband said it was comfortable, and he plans to wear it again should the need arise.
