What We Say: From one of the greatest intersectional thinkers of her generation, in poetic splendour and accessible style, Lorde wakes the world to the issues of today with this posthumous collection of essays. Her work serves as a potent reminder to raise our voices against injustice. 

What They Say: “There’s a clarity to Audre Lorde’s writing that becomes most apparent when you are presented with a collection of her work. Plainly written and devoid of the distractions of punctuation, her poetry is a series of questions and answers of memories and musings” – The White Review
