 A phenomenal #1 bestseller that has appeared on the New York Times bestseller list for nearly three years, this memoir traces Maya Angelou's childhood in a small, rural community during the 1930s.  Filled with images and recollections that point to the dignity and courage of black men and women,Angelou paints a sometimes disquieting, but always affecting picture of the people--and the times--that touched her life.   less

Though a little slow in the beginning, the book takes you through the touching and quite extraordinary life of Marguerite..Bailey,her brother who remains a prominent character in the first half, disappears almost altogether after a while which i found a little disappointing..Characterizations have been done pretty well, especially that of Mrs Annie Henderson..Give it a shot.
