I cannot believe I haven't read anything by Baldwin until now. This was stunning. Difficult to read at times, but really truly spectacular.

(1 review)
Considered an 'audacious' second novel, GIOVANNI'S ROOM is set in the 1950s Paris of American expatriates, liaisons, and violence. This now-classic story of a fated love triangle explores, with uncompromising clarity, the conflicts between desire, conventional morality and sexual identity.
