Author, Activist, Feminist, Teacher, And Artist Bell Hooks Is Celebrated As One Of The Nation'S Leading Intellectuals. Born In Hopkinsville, Kentucky, Hooks Drew Her Unique Pseudonym From The Name Of Her Grandmother, An Intelligent And Strongwilled African American Woman Who Inspired Her To Stand Up Against A Dominating And Repressive Society. Her Poetry, Novels, Memoirs, And Children'S Books Reflect Her Appalachian Upbringing And Feature Her Struggles With Racially Integrated Schools And Unwelcome Authority Figures. One Of Utne Reader'S '100 Visionaries Who Can Change Your Life,' Hooks Has Won Wide Acclaim From Critics And Readers Alike.In Appalachian Elegy, Bell Hooks Continues Her Work As An Imagist Of Life'S Harsh Realities In A Collection Of Poems Inspired By Her Childhood In The Isolated Hills And Hidden Hollows Of Kentucky. At Once Meditative, Confessional, And Political, This Poignant Volume Draws The Reader Deep Into The Experience Of Living In Appalachia. Touching On Such Topics As The Marginalization Of Its People And The Environmental Degradation It Has Suffered Over The Years, Hooks'S Poetry Quietly Elegizes The Slow Loss Of An Identity While Also Celebrating That Which Is Constant, Firmly Rooted In A Place That Is No Longer Whole.
