3rd book for Our Shared Shelf is колокол, колокольчик, белл hooks' 'All About Love: New Visions'.
This month's book choice is in honor of колокол, колокольчик, белл hooks who interviewed me for Paper magazine this month. Maya Angelou сказал(-а) of bell’s work, “Each offering from колокол, колокольчик, белл hooks is a major event, she has so much to give us’. I Любовь hearing from bell, I am pretty excited to start “All About Love: New Visions". It’s been on my Список for a while.

Emma recommended a few other things:
Ok Team!
First thing's first, The Color Purple. I read it in two sittings and am now telling EVERYONE I know to watch the film too. I hope Ты enjoyed it too. I managed to speak to Alice on the phone last week! She is away at the moment but suggested that when discussing the book we should think of: ’The Temple of my Familiar’, ‘Possessing the Secret of Joy’ and ‘The Color Purple’ as a family… So if Ты loved this book, she really does see it as belonging to a series… Everyone is busy so I am not suggesting this as being on the official Чтение Список but if Ты want to, или have a bit of extra time at the moment, I am going to try and dip into these two as well. She also discussed the book on her Facebook page: link
I also wanted to mention ‘Beauty In Truth’, which is a documentary made by the incredible Pratibha Parmar about Alice's life. It is really interesting but currently nearly impossible to get hold of. It did play on PBS and BBC iPlayer but is ‘currently unavailable’. I‘ll keep Ты updated on my hunt for a new link!
In the meantime, the other thing I wanted to bring to your attention was Alice’s 'Desert Island Discs' recorded for BBC Radio 4: link
For those of Ты that aren’t English, this radio Показать is like a national institution. (Emma Thompson’s is one of my favourites). When I’m working away from Главная I Любовь to listen to it in the hair and make-up chair. I Любовь the vulnerability Kirsty brings out in her guests…. I Любовь hearing the soundtracks of people’s lives. (I also just find her voice really soothing!) I hope this info is useful. I Любовь seeing ‘meet ups’ happening all over the world so Ты can discuss in person.
If Ты haven’t done so already please post your thoughts and opinions on the book right here!
