Rufus Scott can considered to be the main character in "Another Country" even though he dies in the first chapter. I like the scene because it show James Baldwin's writing ability, it is descriptive, and you can see it in your mind's eye. I love the scene where Eric recalls walking in Europe and he is carrying a radio in his hand,listening to classic musical, and he is followed by a man that will be his lover. You feel like you get to know each of the characters, and you want them to be settled, but that is difficult based on the discrimination of the time, and how James Baldwin's writes about love as something that can be used to destroy another person, and he thinks that how a lot of people use love.
