James Baldwin

Living in Fire (Revolutionary Lives)

Bill V. Mullen

Discover the life and legacy of an influential American writer like no other. Bill Mullen's first biography of James Baldwin in over a decade explores the personal and political life of a man who refused to shy away from the fire. Baldwin was a lifelong radical, anti-imperialist, black queer advocate, feminist, and pro-Palestinian, making his words continue to resonate through our culture at large. As racist and reactionary forces rise across the world, this is an essential guide to the life and legacy of one of America's most important radical voices.
