Another Country by James Baldwin

4.0

James Baldwin’s works are always of the highest quality, but the poetic prose of this novel blew me away particularly in the first half. I love morally grey heroes of the book who are forced into positions to hurt others because of societal standards and their own past traumas. I think it’s a good way of remembering that you can’t judge people off a single act when you might not know the struggles that person has gone through. Excellent novel.
