Brought to you by Penguin. David, a young American in 1950s Paris, is waiting for his fiancée to return from vacation in Spain. But when he meets Giovanni, a handsome Italian barman, the two men are drawn into an intense affair. After three months David's fiancée returns and, denying his sexuality, he rejects Giovanni for a 'safe' future as a married man — a decision that will bring tragedy, longing and regret. 'Audacious... remarkable... elegant and courageous' Caryl Phillips 'Exquisite, a feat of fire-breathing, imaginative daring' Guardian 'Gorgeous, fearless, tempered by dark knowledge and pain ... the greatest American prose stylist of his generation' Colm Tóibín 'A layered exploration of queer desire ... It is electric' Hilton Als ©1956 James Baldwin (P)2024 Penguin Audio
