9780553569070 Wouldn't Take Nothing For My Journey Now Angelou, Maya FOR USE IN SCHOOLS AND LIBRARIES ONLY. A collection of inspirational messages presents the author's insights into such topics as friendship, grace, spirit, family, and healing.Publishers WeeklyAngelou ( I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings ) is leery of people who give up too easily, whiners, complainers, men seeking an ``earth mother'' and vulgar entertainers. In this collection of short essays, many only two to three pages in length, she discusses the value of charity and her faith in God. She rages with eloquence at the deaths of loved ones, and shares her thoughts on discovering an authentic personal style, the insidious effects of racism, and pregnancy as an experience to be shared by a woman and her mate. Angelou includes reminiscences of her childhood in Stamps, Ark., on being a single mother and on dancing in a professional duo with Alvin Ailey. These quietly inspirational pieces convey her sense of life as an ongoing adventure. (Oct.) Bantam
