The Lost Archives of James Baldwin
Tony Phillips discovers why important items belonging to the American writer James Baldwin are stored in an Englishwoman鈥檚 home on the C么te d鈥橝zur.
When James Baldwin died at his home in the South of France in December 1987, the world lost a towering intellect and one of America鈥檚 literary giants. He was buried in New York a few weeks later. But what remained in France, and still to this day, are thousands of personal and professional effects connected to Baldwin. Journalist Tony Phillips travels to Provence to discover why these items are stored in an Englishwoman鈥檚 home on the C么te d鈥橝zur.
