With courage and wisdom she reveals intimate details and provocative ideas, offering an illuminating vision of a writer's life. Eloquent and powerful, this book lets us see the ways one woman writer works to find her own voice while creating a love relationship based on feminist thinking. Wounds of Passion describes a woman's struggle to devote herself to writing, sharing the difficulties, the triumphs, the pleasures, and the dangers. Writing the acclaimed book Ain't I a Woman: Black Women and Feminism at the age of nineteen, she begins to emerge as a brilliant social critic and public intellectual. Resisting the notion that love and writing don't mix, she begins a fifteen-year relationship with a gifted poet and scholar, who inspires and encourages her. With her customary boldness and insight, Bell Hooks critically reflects on the impact of birth control and the women's movement on our lives. Wounds of Passion is a memoir about writing, love, and sexuality.
