Description: "A ground-breaking achievement, Freedom in the Village charts the innovative course of black gay male literature from 1979 forward. Starting with the publication of James Baldwin's final novel, Just Above My Head - the book that marked the end of the pre-Stonewall era of black literature - then on to the breakthrough works of the 1990s and up to the present day, editor E. Lynn Harris collects forty-seven works."--Jacket.
