Giovanni’s Room with Caryl Phillips

Giovanni’s Room with Caryl Phillips

By Penguin Random House UK

James Baldwin in Paris. On the rain-soaked boulevards, the novelist Caryl Phillips discusses Baldwin's exquisite same-sex love story, drinking in the Cafe de Flore and exploring Saint Germain des Prés.

 

Phillips, who knew James Baldwin, wrote the introduction to the Penguin Modern Classics edition of Giovanni’s Room and an unfilmed screenplay of the novel for Merchant Ivory productions.


2024 marks 100 years since Baldwin was born
