There may be no-one quite like Maya Angelou. Poet to the president, champion of folks, best-selling autobiographer, her experiences as dancer, singer, waitress, activist, director, teacher, wife and mother, have made her mostly of the people truly qualified to talk about her lessons of a lifetime. With her customary courage and humour - and always with style and grace - she reflects on folks and places she's known. She discusses Africa and ageing, she gives us a profile of her great friend and 'daughter' Oprah Winfrey, she sings the praises of sensuality. But here too are her applying for grants the end of a much-wanted marriage, confessions of rage and the importance of solitude. EVEN THE STARS LOOK LONESOME is the work of a wonderful woman who is not afraid to admit to the mistakes and vulnerabilities that make us human.
