Item Description

"Love heals. Let love guide your journey." is bell hooks' handwritten instruction to the successful bidder in When Angels Speak of Love. Publisher Simon and Schuster, Inc. describes this book of poems as "tracing the link between seduction and surrender; the intensity of desire; and the anguish of death."

Melvin McLeod, editor-in-chief of the Shambhala Sun, said of bell hooks that she is "someone who shows that the true life of the mind is not one of disinterested speculation but one of questioning that consumes the whole person, full of emotion, often painful."

bell has authored many essays, articles and conversations on race and gender and their intersection with buddhist practice over the years and all while her own very full career has continued to unfold. bell has given us a signed copy of When Angels Speak of Love from that other, larger part of her life beyond her Shambhala Sun contributions. We are pleased to be able to make them available to you.
