elchivovivo 's review for:

Going to Meet the Man by James Baldwin
5.0
challenging dark inspiring reflective tense medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Complicated

Beautiful mid XX century american prose. 

Baldwin’s plots move forward like a river, and also like a river, they plunge into depths, pausing like whirlpools into the souls of character or into deep insights contained in the scenes.
