The woman's place of power within each of us is neither white nor surface; it is dark, it is ancient, and it is deep

The revolutionary writings of Audre Lorde gave voice to those 'outside the circle of this society's definition of acceptable women'. Uncompromising, angry and yet full of hope, this collection of her essential prose - essays, speeches, letters, interviews - explores race, sexuality, poetry, friendship, the erotic and the need for female solidarity, and includes her landmark piece 'The Master's Tools Will Never Dismantle the Master's House'.

'The truth of her writing is as necessary today as it's ever been' Guardian

Pipa’s narration is restful and contemplative. She takes all the right pauses and inflects all the right places, the reading never comes across as monotonous. Being a 1984 text, some geopolitical references were lost on me, leading me to drift off but overall sister, outsider is a deeply moving and visceral embodiment of the collective black female experience.

Powerful narration

So real. Said as it is.
I have mostly done Lorde’s academic reading but I couldn’t help pause at the depth of her feeling and sentiment

Authentic and powerful
