In a voice that vibrates with strength and pierces with honesty, Maya Angelou serves up the essence of her thoughts about how spirit and spirituality move and shape her life; about service and grace and giving, about how she celebrates the spirit of her people and the earthy sensuality of the sisterhood. She talks about family, discusses how her people have gone astray, and how they can regain the way. These are her lessons in living, lessons from which we all can learn.
