Early in the first chapter of Another Country, James Baldwin presents a kaleidoscopic canvas of urban humanity situated within the precincts of a quasi-pastoral setting, presumably Washington Square Park: The passage cited here is not only as testimony to Baldwin’s literary eloquence -- the entire novel is a nearly a symphony in language. The passage also serves as witness to the scope of the author’s observant compassion. In his re-creation of the nature-image in fiction, Baldwin transcends misty transcendentalism.

The reason why this was done because there was no rom they said (Pardue et al., 2014).
