About This Book
Dedicated to the daughter she never had but sees all around her, Letter
to My Daughter reveals Maya Angelou¡¯s path to living well and living a
life with meaning. Here in short spellbinding essays are glimpses of the
tumultuous life that taught Angelou lessons in compassion and fortitude:
how she was brought up by her indomitable grandmother in segregated
Arkansas, taken in at thirteen by her more worldly and less religious
mother, and grew to be an awkward six-foot-tall teenager whose first
experience of loveless sex paradoxically left her with her greatest
gift, a son.
Whether she is recalling lost friends such as Coretta Scott King and
Ossie Davis, extolling honesty, decrying vulgarity, explaining why
becoming a Christian is a ¡°lifelong endeavor,¡± or simply singing the
praises of a meal of red rice, Maya Angelou writes from the heart to
millions of women she considers her extended family.
