Download As PDF : The Complete Collected Poems eBook Maya Angelou 
Maya Angelou's poetry - lyrical and dramatic, exuberant and playful - speaks of love, longings, partings; of Saturday night partying and the smells and sounds of Southern cities; of freedom and shattered dreams. Of her poetry, Kirkus Reviews has written, 'It is just as much a part of her autobiography as I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings, Gather Together in My Name, Singin' and Swingin' and Gettin' Merry Like Christmas, and The Heart of a Woman'.
The Complete Collected Poems eBook Maya Angelou
The Complete Collected Poems of Maya Angelou was published in 1994. When reading Maya Angelou’s poems I hear her voice in my head. When she read her poems she brought them to life for me. I love the rhythm and rhyme of her poems but also the story or narrative poems. Her poetry of slave and work songs she uses a personal narrative and emphases on the individual response to hardship, oppression and loss. She once said “Once I got into it I realized I was following a tradition established by Frederick Douglas-the slave narrative speaking in the first-person singular talking about the first-person plural, always saying I meaning ‘we’. And what a responsibility. Trying to work with that form, the autobiographical mode, to change it, to make it bigger, richer, finer, and more inclusive in the twentieth century has been a challenge for me.” The book is divided into a collection of love poems, slavery and work poems, and poems about the fight for equality-civil rights of the 50-60’s. It contains a few of my favorite poems, “And Still I rise”, I know why the Caged Bird Sings”, Phenomenal Women. And it also has “On the Pulse of Morning” the poem she wrote for President William Clinton’s inauguration. This is a book I will keep forever to read or and over again.Product details

The Complete Collected Poems eBook Maya Angelou Reviews
Excellent read!
was as described
I was given this book several years ago and appreciated the poems. When I saw it offered via , I right away
ordered copies for some friends' birthdays. Now we have the collection of poems to read to remember Ms. Angelou.
Love this book
The soul of the Afro-American experience through the spirit of a gifted writer.
I was pleasantly surprised at the quality of this book being that it's a used book. Maya Angelou is my favourite poet and I lost my first copy of this book so it means a lot to get another fantastic copy!
The "complete" collected poems by Angelou dates back to 1994 and she is still alive. I noted that many of her poems were not included in the volume either because they were published after 1994 or because the publisher chose to omit some. Thus, I think Random House should consider updating and reissuing the volume of this important writer/poet.
