From: Amazon Posted: Sep 07, 2005 Type: User Review I love women

I had been putting off this book for about 4 years and I finally read it. I was putting it off because I read the first chapter and it was dry. I have to tell you that it gets better down the road. Audre is not just talking about lesbianism, she...

From: Amazon Posted: Oct 07, 1999 Type: User Review Zami is amazing! Yet another reason to love Audre Lorde!

One of the things I loved about this book was how descriptive Audre is about everything. She has the amazing ability to really put me right in the scene, because her attention to details paints such a vivid picture. You can almost taste what...
