Beschreibung

8vo., purple boards and black cloth lettered in gilt; pictorial dust jacket. First edition, first printing. A presentation copy, inscribed: "Dear Louise Meriwether, Always Love and Joy! Maya Angelou, 4/17/2014." ---- Acclaimed author and tireless activist, Louise Meriwether earned a permanent place among literati whose writings reassess the African American experience. Her most enduring novels like "Daddy Was a Number Runner" (with a foreword by James Baldwin) drew high praise from her intimate friend of four decades, Maya Angelou. Meriwether contributed dust jacket blurbs for several of Angelou's works (including this volume) and was a dedicatee of her "The Heart of a Woman." Shortly after Angelou's death in May 2014, Meriwether recalled, "I had told her a little while ago, I said, 'Maya, you know one thing. You gonna die with your boots on,' and she said, 'Yeah, because I never take them off.'" An extraordinary presentation copy. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers ABE-14428842587
