u003cbu003eNATIONAL BESTSELLER In his final years, one of Americas greatest writers envisioned a book about his three assassinated friends, Medgar Evers, Malcolm X, and Martin Luther King. His deeply personal notes for the project had never been published before acclaimed filmmaker Raoul Peck mined them to compose his Academy Award-nominated documentary.u003cbru003eu003cbru003eThrilling . A portrait of one mans confrontation with a country that, murder by murder, as he once put it, devastated my universe. u003ciu003eThe New York Timesu003c/iu003eu003c/bu003eu003cbru003eu003cbru003ePeck weaves these texts together, brilliantly imagining the book that Baldwin never wrote with selected published and unpublished passages, essays, letters, notes, and interviews that are every bit as incisive and pertinent now as they have ever been. Pecks film uses them to jump through time, juxtaposing Baldwins private words with his public statements, in a blazing examination of the tragic history of race in America.u003cbru003eu003cbru003eThis edition contains more than 40 black-and-white images from the film.
