Generally recognized as one of the most important novels of the tumultuous 1960s, The Man Who Cried I Am vividly evokes the harsh era of segregation that presaged the expatriation of African-American intellectuals. Through the eyes of journalist Max Reddick, and with penetrating fictional portraits of Richard Wright and James Baldwin, John A. Williams reveals the hope, courage, and bitter disappointment of the civil-rights era. Infused with powerful artistry, searing anger, as well as insight, humanity, and vision, The Man Who Cried I Am is a classic of postwar American literature.

reviewed Man Who Cried I Am on February 13, 2013 Man Who Cried I Am
This should be much more of an African-American classic than it is. I'd never even heard of it. The writing is excellent, simple but always appropriate, never pat. Although it is a novel about a novelist, and his relationship with another novelist, it never feels overly literary or self-referential. Except for the end, with the uncovering of a huge international conspiracy, it almost never strikes a wrong note. It's a novel I could definitely come back to. It's too bad that, it appears, Williams never duplicated the quality of this novel.
