Bone Black

This little book is stunning. hooks describes seminal times and events from her childhood with grace, insight, and near-poetic language.

bell hooks is a revolutionary thinker, and her memoir is truly phenomenal. This is a great edition, came exactly as promised. A very quick read - only takes a few hours to get through the first time, but rewards further reflection. I read this as a book club book, and I recommend reading it for conversation. It sparks thinking about all sorts of different, quite serious, themes and topics, but also a great spark for more close reads around writing.

A life story with many facets that many can identify with. And those identifying need not be black. It is encouraging to know that some blacks and some whites have some experiences in common. When this is understood healing can begin. Well written and easy to read with this engaging theme. Worth reading.That said, I would not have read it had I seen the author's bio first.

I had to get this book for my AAS class and it’s a great read.
