A Haunting Tale of Race and Identity

The Devil Finds Work tells the story of Griffin, a young black man who is struggling to find his place in a white-dominated world. Griffin is haunted by the memory of his father, a prominent civil rights leader who was murdered when Griffin was a child. As Griffin tries to come to terms with his father's death and his own identity, he becomes increasingly drawn to the allure of violence.

Baldwin's writing is both lyrical and incisive, and he paints a vivid portrait of the racial tensions that were prevalent in America in the 1970s. The Devil Finds Work is a challenging and thought-provoking novel that will stay with you long after you finish it.
