Poems

“Maya Angelou writes like a song, and like the truth.”—The New York Times Book Review

“Black, bitter and beautiful, she speaks of our survival.”—JAMES BALDWIN

Tenderly, joyously, sometimes in sadness, sometimes in pain, Maya Angelou writes from the heart and celebrates life as only she has discovered it. In this moving volume of poetry, we hear the multi-faceted voice of one of the most powerful and vibrant writers of our time.
