James Baldwin's Turkish Decade: Erotics of Exile
Magdalena J. Zaborowska
Reveals the significant role that Turkish locales, cultures, and friends played in James Baldwin's life and thought. This book demonstrates how Baldwin's Turkish sojourns enabled him to re-imagine himself as a black queer writer and to revise his views of American identity and US race relations as the 1960s drew to a close.
