James Baldwins bestselling first novel-a coming-of-age story that depicts incredible resilience in pursuit of self-invention, now hailed as an American classicA novel of extraordinary sensitivity and poetry.-Chicago TribuneOriginally published in 1953, Go Tell It on the Mountain was James Baldwins first major work, based in part on his own childhood in Harlem. With lyrical precision, psychological directness, resonating symbolic power, and a rage born of compassion, Baldwin chronicles a fourteen-year-old boys discovery of the terms of his identity as the stepson of the minister of a Pentecostal storefront church in Harlem. Baldwins rendering of a young persons spiritual, sexual, and moral struggle opened new possibilities in the American language and in the way Americans understood themselves.
