This wise book is the wonderful continuation of the bestselling Wouldn't Take Nothing for My Journey Now.

Even the Stars Look Lonesome is Maya Angelou talking of the things she cares about most. In her unique, spellbinding way, she re-creates intimate personal experiences and gives us her wisdom on a wide variety of subjects. She tells us how a house can both hurt its occupants and heal them. She talks about Africa. She gives us a profile of Oprah. She enlightens us about age and sexuality. She confesses to the problems fame brings and shares with us the indelible lessons she has learned about rage and violence. And she sings the praises of sensuality.

Loved it!

I always wondered about he books. Loved this one. She is full of wit and this little book brought me joy and a good belly laugh!

Insightful and delightful

Listening to Maya Angelou's voice is a treat. Her insightful point of view is heartwarming and moving. It ended too soon, enjoyed listening very much.

A gift

I read this book when it first came out years ago. However, to hear it in the voice of our Dear Maya, takes on a completely enriching tone. She has transitioned the physical world, but like the pyramids, she still stands tall among the best! Giving, teaching us pearls of real life.

Loved this book!

I love everything Maya Angelou ever wrote . The stories are very interesting and I am hypnotized by her voice.

Maya never fails to feed the soul

I am frequently astounded with the words and poetry of Maya and the pastoral timing she has to relate to all things happening in my and life itself. This book, is another timeless work that I would continue to pass down to my family and friends.
