Anmeldelser
«A brilliant writer, a fierce friend and a truly phenomenal woman»
President Barack Obama
«The poems and stories she wrote . . . were gifts of wisdom and wit, courage and grace»
President Bill Clinton
«She moved through the world with unshakeable calm, confidence and a fierce grace . . . She will always be the rainbow in my clouds»
Oprah Winfrey
«She was important in so many ways. She launched African American women writing in the United States. She was generous to a fault. She had nineteen talents - used ten. And was a real original. There is no duplicate»
Toni Morrison
«Angelou was the first poet since Robert Frost to recite work at a presidential inauguration. And Still I Rise is a tribute to determination, from the title poem to the anthemic "Phenomenal Woman", which sounds like something that Beyoncé could set to music»
Stig Abell, The Times
