A memoir about motherhood and music from the bestselling author of
I KNOW WHY THE CAGED BIRD SINGS 'A brilliant writer, a fierce
friend and a truly phenomenal woman' BARACK OBAMA Maya Angelou's
seven volumes of autobiography are a testament to the talents and
resilience of this extraordinary writer. Loving the world, she also
knows its cruelty. As a black woman she has known discrimination
and extreme poverty, but also hope, joy, achievement and
celebration. In her third marvellous volume, music and her son are
the focus of Maya Angelou's life. She is on the edge of a new
world: marriage, show business and a triumphant tour of Porgy and
Bess. 'She moved through the world with unshakeable calm,
confidence and a fierce grace . . . She will always be the rainbow
in my clouds' OPRAH WINFREY 'She was important in so many ways. She
launched African American women writing in the United States. She
was generous to a fault. She had nineteen talents - used ten. And
was a real original. There is no duplicate' TONI MORRISON
