Fascinating and revealing,
By A Customer
This review is from: A Brave and Startling Truth (Hardcover)
Maya Angelou's works are compelling as well as they are truthful. This book releases many untold stories of slavery in the old South, and the Africans' strife to overcome racism. I love this book and strongly recommend it.

Maya's vision,
This review is from: A Brave and Startling Truth (Hardcover)
"A Brave and Startling Truth," by Maya Angelou, is a short but powerful book. The book contains the text of a poem which, according to the book cover, was read by Angelou to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the founding of the United Nations.This is a humanistic poem in the tradition of Walt Whitman and Pablo Neruda. In her straightforward poetic voice, Angelou articulates a global vision of the frailties and strengths of humanity, and expresses her hope for peace. This small book would make a good gift.

a very good book,
By A Customer
This review is from: A Brave and Startling Truth (Hardcover)
On Sunday April 12,2002 I saw and heard Dr. Maya Angelou speak. She is an exceptionally well speaker. I loved being able to hear her read her works out loud. Her poem A Brave and Startling Truth is very well written becuase it is written about these times.
