Bøker av Magdalena J. Zaborowska

Magdalena J. Zaborowska uses James Baldwin's house in the south of France as a lens through which to reconstruct his biography and to explore the politics and poetics of blackness, queerness, and domesticity in his complex and underappreciated later works.

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.
