Annotation
Description At the height of his theatrical career, the actor Leo Proudhammer is nearly felled by a heath attack. As he hovers between life and death, we see the choices that have made him enviably famous and terrifying vulnerable. For between Leo's childhood on the streets of Harlem and his arrival into the world of the theatre lies a wilderness of desire and loss, shame and rage. And everywhere there is the anguish of being black in a society that seems poised on the brink of racial war. In this tender, impassioned 1968 novel, James Baldwin created one of his most striking characters: a man struggling to become himself.
