To this love story James Baldwin brings a spare and impassioned intensity, charging it with universal resonance and power.''If Beale Street Could Talk affirms not only love between a man and a woman, but love of a type that is dealt with only rarely in contemporary fiction - that between members of a family'' Joyce Carol OatesThe inspiration for Oscar award-winning film
