191 - Going to Meet the Man by James Baldwin
Episode 181
Thursday, 5 February, 2026
It's February, which means it's time for our annual James Baldwin episode. This we're reading his short story collection, Going to Meet the Man, published in 1965.Show NotesAs you might have noticed, we could talk about Baldwin for hours, so let us know your favourite James Baldwin books! We spent a good chunk of time before recording trying to figure out why we didn't have a James Baldwin episode in 2022 and we have no answers. We were sure we had done one every year since reading Another Country, but apparently not in '22! Time is fake.In our next episode we'll be reading Property by Kate Cayley, which is a novel recently released by our fave indie publisher, Coach House Books. Don't forget to read along with our book club! We're currently reading Drive Your Plow Over the Bones of the Dead by Olga Tokarczuk and we'll be talking about it on March 4.Other James Baldwin Episodes55: Another Country61: If Beale Street Could Talk113: Giovanni's Room141: Notes of a Native Son 166: Go Tell It On the Mountain
