I discovered bell hooks during the first year of university, I think (it may have been earlier in sixth form or college). I grew up reading their works, reaching for their novels – fiction and non-fiction when I sought to read about people that looked like me. Her writing, alongside Toni Morrison, Maya Angelou, Mildred D Taylor, Angela Davis, Terry Macmillan and many more, shaped me into who I am today. ![]() She was what I would consider one of the foremothers of Black literature for me. There are no other words to describe bell hooks than as a literary giant. ![]() I’m entirely lost for words with this review.īut I’ll try my best to put into words how this book made me feel. ![]()
