With lyrical precision, psychological directness, resonating symbolic power, and a rage born of compassion, Baldwin chronicles a fourteen-year-old boy's discovery of the terms of his identity as the stepson of the minister of a Pentecostal storefront church in Harlem. Baldwin's rendering of a young person's spiritual, sexual, and moral struggle opened new possibilities in the American language and in the way Americans understood themselves.","brand":"Vintage","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58222435828015,"sku":"9780375701870","price":16.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0816\/1742\/0591\/files\/imageloader_86cabd57-a8e9-4988-8a20-408f223ac6f4.jpg?v=1784281973","url":"https:\/\/www.wyrdbookstore.com\/products\/go-tell-it-on-the-mountain","provider":"Wyrd Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
