This review is from: Amiri Baraka: The Politics and Art of a Black Intellectual (Hardcover)
Watts provides a nuanced yet highly charged analysis of a confounding figure in American letters and politics. If you've ever wondered, "What happened to LeRoi Jones/Amiri Baraka?" Watts will give you plenty of answers. As confident discussing Greenwich Village bohemians as he is violent black nationalists (and everything in between), Watts's book is required reading for anyone who wants to understand the vicissitudes of being a black intellectual.
