  • "Set in Greenwich Village, Harlem, and France, among other locales, Another Country is a novel of passions--sexual, racial, political, artistic--that is stunning for its emotional intensity and haunting sensuality, depicting men and women, blacks and whites, stripped of their masks of gender and race by love and hatred at the most elemental and sublime. In a small set of friends, Baldwin imbues the best and worst intentions of liberal America in the early 1970s."
  • "Presents a graphic portrayal of bisexuality and interracial relations. Rufus Scott, a black jazz musician, commits suicide, impelling his friends to search for the meaning of his death and, consequently, for a deeper understanding of their own identities. Employing a loose, episodic structure, this work traces the affairs--heterosexual and homosexual as well as interracial--among Scott's friends."@en
  • "A novel of sex and blacks and whites in New York from Greenwich Village in Harlem which pictures the erosion of several characters: a small group of acquaintances struggling for survival in American bohemia. An often powerful and mostly sad story of life on the fringes of society."@en
  • "Een verkenningstocht naar de grenzen tussen blanken en zwarten, mannen en vrouwen, maar vooral tussen mannen onderling in de onmenselijke jungle van Harlem en Manhattan in New York."
  • ""First there is a battlefield, a pressure-cooker, a time-bomb: the destructive potential that exists in racial bigotry, in color prejudice and in the tensions and sensitivities which such attitudes encourage. Woven into this pattern of violence, there is a theme that is gentle, wistful and poetic: this is Baldwin's apologia for homosexual love.""@en

  • "Classic fiction. This masterly story of desire, hatred and violence opens with the unforgettable character of Rufus Scott, a scavenging Harlem jazz musician adrift in New York. Self-destructive, bad and brilliant, he draws us into a Bohemian underworld pulsing with heat, music and sex, where desperate and dangerous characters betray, love and test each other to the limit."
