Description
James Baldwin's powerful exploration of racial injustice in America is a deeply personal and incisive work of non-fiction.
Written in the form of two intense letters, The Fire Next Time is a searing condemnation of the legacy of racial injustice and a passionate plea for change.
First published in 1963, this book has become a seminal work of American literature, galvanising a nation and giving voice to the emerging civil rights movement.
