Angelou, Maya - I Know Why The Caged Bird Sings - ( Item 140293 )
Published in London by Folio Society. 2020. Second Edition. Fine Hardback. No inscriptions or bookplates. Fine slipcase. Quarter-bound in blocked cloth, with printed and blocked textured paper sides. Set in Minion. . 256 pages. Frontispiece plus 5 colour illustrations including one double-page spread. Plain slipcase. 8.75" x 5.5". Maya Angelou's autobiographical account of her childhood and early youth growing up in 1930's America, is an evocation of a black girl's struggle against her oppressors. A great American classic, Maya Angelou's powerful and perceptive memoir forged a path for Black American women's writing and made her an international icon. Written in 1969, it recounts Angelou's early experiences as a woman of colour in the segregated Deep South where, surrounded by bigotry and poverty, daily life was lived on a knife-edge. She experiences the joys and sorrows of Black American life, but with grit and determination, and the warmth of the community that raised her, Angelou forges a different life for herself. Her growth into womanhood finally becomes one of celebration and achievement. This new edition celebrates the literary magnitude of the book, as well as its enduring appeal. Artist Shabazz Larkin has created a beautiful binding design and a series of electrifying illustrations that capture key moments in the author's girlhood, while award-winning novelist Tayari Jones conveys why this book has touched the hearts and minds of millions of readers in her emotive new introduction. ISBN: None .
