‘Sex and Society — just how far can you go?’ By Alexander Walker

Interview with writer Terry Southern. Southern references JB in the opening paragraph of the article. He describes Baldwin as a ‘rags to riches story’. The article continues: ‘Your heart warms at once to any man so unfashionable as to call James Baldwin a commercial success. Till Terry Southern spoke it somehow didn’t seem the done thing to suggest that the Negro polemical writer actually makes money, a lot of money out of his writing’.
