Industry Reviews
"Maya Angelou writes like a song, and like the truth...her style has both ripened and solidified...more like poetry."
(06/16/1974)
"Angelou's prose is sculpted, concise, rich with flavor and surprise, exuding a natural confidence and command...Her laughter at herself is witty, intelligent, and a good preventative against maudlin confession...[but] the book is a comedy of self-deception."
(07/11/1974)
"The events of her life make interesting if somewhat lurid reading...And though the author is never mawkishly sentimental, she shows herself to have been, like most of us, silly...Yet she is proud. She stumbles, falls, but like the phoenix, rises renewed and wholly myth."
(07/1975)
