Jimmy

In November 1948, James Baldwin left New York and, thanks to a fellowship grant, relocated to Paris. The 24-year-old writer would spend most of the next decade there, escaping American racism and his own social alienation, ensconcing himself in the city's Algerian quarters and the community of Left Bank artists in Saint-Germain-des-Prés, and writing his first books.
