''Giovanni's Room'' is a 1956 novel by James Baldwin.〔Stryker, Susan. ''Queer Pulp: Perverted Passions from the Golden Age of the Paperback'' (San Francisco: Chronicle Books, 2001), page 104.〕 The book focuses on the events in the life of an American man living in Paris and his feelings and frustrations with his relationships with other men in his life, particularly an Italian bartender named Giovanni whom he meets at a Parisian gay bar. ''Giovanni's Room'' is noteworthy for bringing complex representations of homosexuality and bisexuality to a reading public with empathy and artistry, thereby fostering a broader public discourse of issues regarding same-sex desire.〔Bronski, Michael, ed. ''Pulp Friction: Uncovering the Golden Age of Gay Male Pulps''. New York: St. Martin's Griffin, 2003, pages 10-11.〕 ==Plot introduction== David, a young American man whose girlfriend has gone off to Spain to contemplate marriage, is left alone in Paris and begins an affair with an Italian man, Giovanni. The entire story is narrated by David during "the night which is leading me to the most terrible morning of my life," when Giovanni will be executed.
