Review: A scintillating masterpiece - Baldwin wrote this set of essays back in 1985. 37 years later, each phrase and sentence resonates the same way as it did then. What stands out is the author's sharp sense of perception and, defined perspectives. A rational reader of this decade can only hope this book could become a fiction. Baldwin himself would've wanted that too. If more people get to understand the perspective that Baldwin presents, maybe some day, half a decade later we can hope for it to, finally, become a work of fiction.
Review: Baldwin and Racism in USA ~ An Eye-opener - From the back cover ~ "Drawing on Baldwin's own experience of prejudice in an America, violently divided by race, these searing essays blend the intensely personal with the political to envusage a better world." Racism is still one of the worst 'inventions' by mankind. With an inflated ego, boosted by a hollow sense of 'superiority', the white people have dominated the people of colour since forever. From literature to the actual living condition, the black people have been subjected to inhuman treatment, fueled by the myth of white supremacy. James Baldwin, a black American lived through these conditions and had experienced the harsh brutality first hand. Through the 3 essays in the book he has narrated his experience, sometimes jokingly, but never does he shy away from point out the reality of racism. If you have faced any kind of discrimination in your life, you must read this book. Although having racism as their base, these essays can be read as the starting point of a protest against any oppression or discrimination.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A book that will change your life
*by A***R on 2 February 2019*

Though set in racially divided America in the '50s and '60s, James Baldwin's account is universally and timelessly relevant, as he sees right into the deepest darkest selves of all human beings. The book simply shines light.
