Brought to you by Penguin. David, a young American in 1950s Paris, is waiting for his fiancÃ©e 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 fiancÃ©e returns and, denying his sexuality, he rejects Giovanni for a 'safe' future as a married man â€” 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 TÃ³ibÃn 'A layered exploration of queer desire ... It is electric' Hilton Als Â©1956 James Baldwin (P)2024 Penguin Audio
