Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

Dance leavens this mixture of humorous work by well-known authors such as novelist April Sinclair and poet Maya Angelou with a sprinkling of salty proverbs. . . . The result makes for many hours of enjoyable reading on subjects from O. J. to rum cake.

Reseña del editor:

In this "dazzling anthology" (Publishers Weekly), Daryl Cumber Dance has collected the often hard-hitting, sometimes risqué, always dramatic humor that arises from the depth of black women's souls and the breadth of their lives. The eloquent wit and laughter of African American women are presented here in all their written and spoken manifestations: autobiographies, novels, essays, poems, speeches, comic routines, proverbial sayings, cartoons, mimeographed sheets, and folk tales. The chapters proceed thematically, covering the church, love, civil rights, motherly advice, and much more.
