To read

In case you missed it — the GULA crowdfund, and the rest of the lovely Book Bazaar, is live now! We’re going into Day 3 and nine of our 22 projects have already funded, which is incredible!

Just tuning in now? The Book Bazaar is a cohort of indie authors all crowdfunding book projects at once – some of us are brand new to crowdfunding, and some are old hands, but we’re all helping each other out to see our projects come to life. GULA is mine, a book-length epic poem about poverty, capitalism and the fall of the empire.

Meet the author

Writer James Baldwin at home in Saint Paul de Vence, South of France, in 1985.

James Baldwin (1924-1987)

It goes without saying, I believe, that if we understood ourselves better, we would damage ourselves less. But the barrier between oneself and one’s knowledge of
oneself is high indeed. There are so many things one would rather not know! We become social creatures because we cannot live any other way. But in order to become social, there are a great many other things that we must not become, and we are frightened, all of us, of these forces within us that perpetually menace our precarious security. Yet the forces are there: we cannot will them away. All we can do is learn to live with them. And we cannot learn this unless we are willing to tell the truth about ourselves, and the truth about us is always at variance with what we wish to be. The human effort is to bring these two realities into a relationship resembling reconciliation. The human beings whom we respect the most, after all—and sometimes fear the most—are those who are most deeply involved in this delicate and strenuous effort, for they have the unshakable authority that comes only from having looked on and endured and survived the worst.”
