I loved her writing. Sometimes i got lost in it. I want to read her poetry, that's next. Bookended by her essays of trips to Russia and Grenada. Words of love, anger, teaching, rage, pain, strength. Essays on writing and motherhood and feminism. A well known quote is from her essay the master's tools will never dismantle the master's house, and there was another about how you can have knowledge and understanding but one does not replace the other. I liked the text more than the narration. Audio.
