Just Above My Head: A Novel

Just Above My Head: A Novel

The stark grief of a brother mourning a brother opens this novel with a stunning, unforgettable experience.  Here, in a monumental saga of love and rage, Baldwin goes back to Harlem, to the church of his groundbreaking novel <b>Go Tell It on the Mountain</b>, to the homosexual passion of <b>Giovanni's Room</b>, and to the political fire that enflames his nonfiction work.  Here, too, the story of gospel singer Arthur Hall and his family becomes both a journey into another country of the soul and senses--and a living contemporary history of black struggle in this land.
