À propos de cet audio

 An inspiring collection of essays by black women writers, curated by the founder of the popular book club Well-Read Black Girl, on the importance of recognizing ourselves in literature.

Remember that moment when you first encountered a character who seemed to be written just for you? That feeling of belonging remains with readers the rest of their lives—but not everyone regularly sees themselves on the pages of a book. In this timely anthology, Glory Edim brings together original essays by some of our best black women writers to shine a light on how important it is that we all—regardless of gender, race, religion, or ability—have the opportunity to find ourselves in literature.

Contributors include Jesmyn Ward (Sing, Unburied, Sing), Lynn Nottage (Sweat), Jacqueline Woodson (Another Brooklyn), Gabourey Sidibe (This Is Just My Face), Morgan Jerkins (This Will Be My Undoing), Tayari Jones (An American Marriage), Rebecca Walker (Black, White and Jewish), and Barbara Smith (Home Girls: A Black Feminist Anthology)

Whether it’s learning about the complexities of femalehood from Zora Neale Hurston and Toni Morrison, finding a new type of love in The Color Purple, or using mythology to craft an alternative black future, the subjects of each essay remind us why we turn to books in times of both struggle and relaxation. As she has done with her book club–turned–online community Well-Read Black Girl, in this anthology Glory Edim has created a space in which black women’s writing and knowledge and life experiences are lifted up, to be shared with all readers who value the power of a story to help us understand the world and ourselves.

I often read multiple books at a time using different mediums and I try to switch up the genres and general tone of the books so i don’t have to feel like I have to read something heavy or serious just because it’s what I am reading right now.

Firstly, it’s more of a 3.5 but I don’t have a half star 🤷🏾‍♀️
I bought this book for that reason, I thought it would fun short essays with cute anecdotes, which it was. Unfortunately I found that a lot of the content was very similar, which made it hard to distinguish each contributor (which was probably exasperated by the fact that I was listening to it). It is a good book to help you build a reading list, but you could also just use goodreads I guess 🤷🏾‍♀️
