评分上世纪三四十年代的美国南部小镇,尘土飞扬的炎夏永无尽头,黑人们捡拾棉花,一贫如洗,白人似乎是另一个世界的生物,而祖母经营的一间便利店成了唯一的庇护所。Maya Angelo透过童年的自己,轻描淡写地记录下割裂的世界,和窘迫生活中的乐趣与微光。
Maya Angelou, born Marguerite Ann Johnson April 4, 1928 in St. Louis, Missouri, was an American poet, memoirist, actress and an important figure in the American Civil Rights Movement. In 2001 she was named one of the 30 most powerful women in America by Ladies Home Journal. Maya Angelou is known for her series of six autobiographies, starting with I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings, (1969) which was nominated for a National Book Award and called her magnum opus. Her volume of poetry, Just Give Me a Cool Drink of Water 'Fore I Die (1971) was nominated for the Pulitzer Prize.
Here is a book as joyous and painful, and as mysterious and memorable, as childhood itself. I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings captures the longing of lonely children, the brute insult of bigotry, and the wonder of words that can make the world right. Maya Angelou’s first memoir, published in 1969 is a modern American classic beloved worldwide.
Sent by their mother to their devout, self-sufficient grandmother in a small Southern town, Maya and her brother, Bailey, endure the ache of abandonment and the prejudice of the local “powhitetrash.” When she journeys at eight to her mother’s side in St. Louis, she is attacked by a man many times her age. Years later, in San Francisco, she learns about love for herself–and has to live with the consequences for a lifetime. The kindness of others, Maya’s own strong spirit, and the ideas of great authors (“I met and fell in love with William Shakespeare”) will allow her to be free instead of imprisoned.
Poetic and powerful–now in a beautiful keepsake edition– I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings will touch hearts and change minds as long as people read.

评分阅读这本书让我想起本雅明对他童年时代柏林的描述,不是因为相似,而是因为相异。相异但同样奇特的感知方式。 我深为本雅明的回忆而倾倒,在他的记忆和笔端,童年生活不是经由时间而是空间做出铺陈,是思想地形图的呈现:动物园、内阳台、柏林老西区、祖母和姨妈们的房子、学...
