Additional Curriculum/Series Information
Maya Angelou's unforgettable collection of poetry lends its name to the documentary film about her life,
And Still I Rise,
as seen on PBS's
American Masters
.
Pretty women wonder where my secret lies.
I'm not cute or built to suit a fashion model's size
But when I start to tell them,
They think I'm telling lies.
I say,
It's in the reach of my arms,
The span of my hips,
The stride of my step,
The curl of my lips.
I'm a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.
Thus begins -Phenomenal Woman, - just one of the beloved poems collected here in Maya Angelou's third book of verse. These poems are powerful, distinctive, and fresh--and, as always, full of the lifting rhythms of love and remembering.
And Still I Rise
is written from the heart, a celebration of life as only Maya Angelou has discovered it.
-It is true poetry she is writing, - M.F.K. Fisher has observed, -not just rhythm, the beat, rhymes. I find it very moving and at times beautiful. It has an innate purity about it, unquenchable dignity. . . . It is astounding, flabbergasting, to recognize it, in all the words I read every day and night . . . it gives me heart, to hear so clearly the caged bird singing and to understand her notes.-
