Contents:  My dungeon shook: letter to my nephew on the one hundredth anniversary of the emancipation -- Down at the cross: letter from a region in my mind. Summary:  "A bestseller when it first appeared in 1963, The Fire Next Time galvanized the nation and gave passionate voice to the emerging civil rights movement. At once a powerful evocation of James Baldwin''s early life in Harlem and a disturbing examination of the consequences of racial injustice, the book is an intensely personal and provocative document. It consists of two 'letters,' written on the occasion of the centennial of the Emancipation Proclamation, that exhort Americans, both black and white, to attack the terrible legacy of racism. In the second, Mr. Baldwin recounts a meeting he had with Elijah Muhammad, a leader of the Nation of Islam movement. Described by The New York Times Book Review as 'sermon, ultimatum, confession, deposition, testament, and chronicle -- all presented in searing, brilliant prose,' The Fire Next Time stands as a classic of our literature"--Provided by publisher.
