Nessuno sa il mio nome è la seconda raccolta di saggi di James Baldwin pubblicata per la prima volta nel 1961 e scritta durante la sua permanenza in Europa, quando la distanza dagli Stati Uniti, fortissimamente voluta, gli aveva permesso di riflettere in modo nuovo sulla condizione delle persone nere in una società dominata dai bianchi. Trascendere la sterile categoria di blackness, sia essa quella imposta dal mondo bianco o quella eretta a scopo difensivo dalla comunità nera, divenne il nucleo dell’opera di Baldwin come scrittore.

And before long, his parents discovered the impossible: with one touch, their son could mend Flesh, erase pain, even call life back from the edge. His parents swore to protect him in the hush of the Blue Ridge Mountains.

Every Polaroid tells a lie. And every lie demands blood. Rain falls. Hymns echo. A killer arranges bodies like artwork and leaves Polaroids behind—ritualistic, intimate, and taunting. No fingerprints. No witnesses. Only a whistle in the dark and a message no one can decipher. Then Tobias Reddick steps into the case.

In questo meraviglioso romanzo James Baldwin ci restituisce una toccante storia d’amore in un mondo fatto di dolore e ingiustizia. La storia è raccontata attraverso gli occhi di Tish, una diciannovenne bella e innamorata di Fonny, il giovane scultore padre del suo bambino. Il racconto mescola romanticismo e tristezza. Tish e Fonny avevano programmato di sposarsi ma Fonny viene accusato ingiustamente di stupro da un poliziotto bianco, e imprigionato. Tish tenta con ogni mezzo di supportare il suo amato mentre sta per partorire il bambino che hanno concepito insieme.

La definizione di saggio per le opere non narrative di Baldwin è certamente impropria. Baldwin è un artista, prima di essere un intellettuale, e il suo appassionante confronto con la realtà americana è opera di uno scrittore. Fanno da legame le immagini, le intuizioni, le facce e la sequenza di emozioni e impressioni, piuttosto che l’organizzazione delle idee, perché Baldwin è sempre più impegnato, nei saggi come nei romanzi, a raccontare una storia. Pubblicato per la prima volta nel 1963, La prossima volta il fuoco di James Baldwin colpisce dritto al cuore della cosiddetta “questione nera”.

Na nota introdutória deste volume, James Baldwin, aos 31 anos, se dá conta do momento mais importante de sua formação, quando se viu obrigado a perceber que a linha do seu passado não levava à Europa, e sim à África. Foi então que ele se deparou com uma revelação chocante: Shakespeare, Bach e Rembrandt não eram criações "realmente minhas, não abrigavam minha história; seria inútil procurar nelas algum reflexo de mim. Eu era um intruso; aquele legado não era meu".

En dépit des bouleversements psychologiques et sociaux qu'il exige, cet ouvrage ne veut que proposer la solution de bon sens au problème de la place des Noirs dans la société américaine. Malgré le ton parfois menaçant, malgré la satire souvent mordante, La prochaine fois, le feu est avant tout un appel à la modération, une ultime tentative de compromis (en 1963) entre les extrémistes des deux bords aveuglés par la passion.

In this deeply personal book, Baldwin reflects on the experiences that shaped him as a writer and activist: from his childhood in Harlem to the deaths of Martin Luther King and Malcolm X. Exploring the visceral reality of life in the American South as well as Baldwin’s impressions of London, Paris and Hamburg, No Name in the Street grapples with the failed promises of global liberation movements in fearless, candid prose.
