Maya Angelou was, and still is, one of the most important writers who influenced millions of readers around the world. In this book, Angelou writes to all the girls in the world, to the girl wounded by fleeting love, to the toiling girl in a distant village, to the girl who screamed loudly but no one listened to her, and to all the women who could not find anyone to write their pain... In this book she recounts Maya Angelou re-shaping her life, so she touches on the most prominent defining moments that shaped her awareness and prompted her to address very important issues, including violence, rape, racial discrimination, and abortion, in addition to many other issues related to the status of women and their struggle for the usurpation of their rights in a society dominated by patriarchy and discrimination over basis of gender. A book we all need to finally realize that every moment in our lives is a message that we can only live again by writing it.
