Gather Together in My Name

Now with a brand new jacket treatment. The second title in Maya Angelou's bestselling autobiography is reissued in a new look. Maya Angelou's 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 discriminat- ion and extreme poverty, but also hope, joy, achievement and celebration. In the sequel to her best-selling I KNOW WHY THE CAGED BIRD SINGS Maya Angelou is a young mother in California, unemploye- d, embarking on brief affairs and transient jobs in shops and night-clubs, turning to prostitution and the world of narcotics.
