Industry Reviews
"...[H]is celebrated eloquence is partly the pressure of need, partly hatred, partly an hysteria of the imagination, and partly something else struggling to get out. The new book makes this a little clearer....[T]here are two stories, 'Sonny's Blues' and 'This Morning, This Evening, So Soon,' which are far better than anything Mr. Baldwin has done in fiction."
New York Review of Books - Denis Donoghue (12/09/1965)
"Full-blooded, alive; a dazzling display of Baldwin's style at its sharpest."
