- W1566595973 abstract "James Baldwin's short story Sonny's Blues, first published in 1957, has been anthologized several times since its inclusion in Baldwin's Going to Meet the Man (1965). It is fine and immediately appealing story, but it has never received critical treatment adequate to its complexity. The best analysis—an essay by John M. Reilly—rightly asserts the centrality of the in the story as means of personal and social communication. In the last scene, Reilly sees the reconciliation of the narrator and his brother (which certainly does occur) and an affirmation of the as a metaphor of Black community. But the meaning of the blues is, as I hope to show, rather wider than Reilly seems to think, and is part of larger theme which is conveyed almost wholly through the story's images. Sonny's Blues is Baldwin's most concise and suggestive statement about the nature and function of art, and is doubly artful in making that statement through life situations." @default.
