Presents the author's analysis, an extensive bibliography, and an exclusive 1985 interview in which the author asked Baldwin about his reputation in France. Covering more than three decades (1952-1988) the study examines the large body of criticism by French-language critics--including African critics--and shows that the complex and substantive reasons for Baldwin's success go beyond the obvious interest of the French in African-American literature and his intermittent stay in France.
