The Evidence of Things Unseen: Baldwin, Faith, and Fiction

Join The Center for Fiction in welcoming Yahdon Israel, founder of The Literaryswag Book Club and Senior Editor at Simon & Schuster, and Robert Jones, Jr. (formerly known as “Son of Baldwin”), the New York Times bestselling author of The Prophets, for a dynamic conversation about James Baldwin’s fiction. The pair will discuss the powerful link between Baldwin’s faith and artistic imagination that enabled him to create a language of possibility on the page—and how we can all work to apply this in our own lives.
