I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings - Maya Angelou

Premium Review "Into this cocoon I crept" (1010 words)

Rating:

years of Marguerite?s life as she comes to terms with what happened to her and the person that she becomes. The book is an autobiographical account of Maya Angelou?s childhood so the impact it makes is stronger as you know that every word is true. It is a short book as it only covers Marguerite?s life between the ages of three and sixteen but what struck me was that within this relatively short space of time, this girl experiences more than most people do in a lifetime. And considerably more than anybody would want to experience. It is obvious from the start (and the back cover blurb) that Marguerite will suffer some kind of sexual abuse. What I wasn?t expecting ...
