 Guardian Unlimited Books | By genre | Rereadings: Go Tell It on the Mountain by James Baldwin
Sing or shout or testify or keep it to yourself: but know whence you came." Baldwin was the son of a preacher and the grandson of a slave, and his voice continues to resonate 50 years after the publication of his first novel, Go Tell It on the Mountain (1953).
Rereading Go Tell It on the Mountain in the light of Baldwin's later sustained attacks on the church (particularly The Fire Next Time, 1963), it's clear that he was deeply critical of religion; and yet I'm not convinced that his work became more secular.
Throughout Go Tell It on the Mountain, he emphasises the physicality of worship and the thin line between religious and sexual exertion.
