Unlike in other African American literary works where Christianity constantly features as a theme, this text delves into the main mould of Christianity as a character in the works of James Baldwin. A character is seen within a wider spectrum so as to include both ideas and/or issues presented in a work of art exhibiting unique traits. Christianity has been animated to be able to interact with other ideas with moral, dispositional and emotional qualities. This text undoubtedly opens new vistas in Baldwin's works with respect to Christianity even as it gives practicing Christians a feedback on the impact of their faith on society. It is envisaged that students and lecturers of both literature and religion will find this book handy.
