With lyrical precision, psychological directness, resonating symbolic power, and a rage that is at once unrelenting and compassionate, Baldwin chronicles a fourteen-year-old boy's discovery of the terms of his identity as the stepson of the minister of a Pentecostal storefront church in Harlem. Baldwin's rendering of his protagonist's spiritual, sexual, and moral struggle toward self-invention opened new possibilities in the American language and in the way Americans understood themselves.","brand":"James Baldwin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53206910697685,"sku":"BS-I6J-688977","price":17.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0777\/7170\/2485\/files\/9780593688977-HD.jpg?v=1771179031","url":"https:\/\/www.acornbookshop.com\/products\/go-tell-it-on-the-mountain-deluxe-edition","provider":"Acorn Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
