Zami: A New Spelling of My Name - (Crossing Press Feminist (Paperback)) by Audre Lorde (Paperback)

Zami is a powerful and moving autobiography of Audre Lorde's early years as a writer and black lesbian in NYC.

Through vivid childhood memories and coming-of-age stories, Lorde weaves together a number of personal 'mythographies,' ultimately telling the story of her life.

With finely distilled reflection, Lorde's prose moves along in seemingly effortless sentences that are vivid, charming, nostalgic, hilarious, rich, succulent, and sensual.

This book is a must-read for anyone interested in the experiences of women of color, LGBTQ+ individuals, or those looking to understand the evolution of a strong and remarkable character.
