What Tomasz says: “I will always cherish Giovanni’s Room, but my favourite Baldwin novel is Another Country. Maybe because of its abundance of flawed, likeable characters – the story revolves around a loose group of New York friends in the wake of a suicide – or maybe because it’s the most searing and resonant portrait of Baldwin’s own country I’ve ever come across”
