Über diesen Titel

Brought to you by Penguin.

The inspiration for the film from Oscar award-winning director Barry Jenkins

Harlem in the 1970s: the black soul of New York City. Tish is nineteen and the man she loves - her lifelong friend and the father of her unborn child - has been jailed for a crime he did not commit. As their families come together to fight for his freedom, will their love be enough?

Kritikerstimmen

'If Beale Street Could Talk affirms not only love between a man and a woman, but love of a type that is dealt with only rarely in contemporary fiction - that between members of a family.' (Joyce Carol Oates)

'Soulful... Racial injustice may flatten "the black experience" into one single, fearful, constantly undermined way of life - but black life, black love, is so much larger than that... It's one of the signature lessons of Baldwin's work that blackness contains multitudes.' (Vanity Fair)

'Truth-telling, witness bearing, soul stirring writing.' (Cornel West)
