Abstract

James Baldwin's" Giovanni's Room" explores the internal struggle of a homosexual in denial. The main character, David, faces an internal conflict that eventually destroys every relationship he encounters in his personal life. His own struggle with his sexuality began at an early age and is directly linked to his relationship with his parents. David's failure to come to terms with his homosexuality is the mixed result of poor parenting that left him unable to reach emotional adulthood and his own insecurities with what he deems to be social deviance.
