The idea that I was the unfortunate owner of unappreciated genius never troubled me. But still I was clear in my mind I would not lay down my pen.
“It was books that taught me that the things that tormented me most were the very things that connected me with all the people who were alive, or who had ever been alive.”
James Baldwin
