4.0 von 5 Sternen Gather Together in My Name, 28. Januar 2003
Von Ein Kunde
Diese Rezension stammt von: Gather Together in My Name (Taschenbuch)
My opinion as well is that this book should be read rather by adults. Nevertheless I find the book very worth reading it, despite or perhaps also because of the "tough descriptions" to this Autobiografie. I personally think the book "I know why the caged bird sings" is so far the best. But "Gather together in my name" shows the hardness and the thorny ways in life of a Girl named Maya Angelou, when she still was a teen and already resposible for her little son, where she is also longing for somebody that accept her and her baby without "messing around" with Maya's life and feelings, since she found out that her relatives were not supporting her.

All in all, I think to read this serial is worth it and I am looking forward to read the next books.

5.0 von 5 Sternen Phenomenal, 5. Juni 2000
I read the first and second book in Maya Angelou biographies. "Gather Together In My Name" is the sequel to "I know Why the Cage Bird Sings." In "Gather Together In My Name," Maya Angelou is still in her teens and has given birth to her son, Guy. The time that this book takes place is at the end of World War 2. This time is a time of new beginnings, especially for black people. Maya Angelou tries to find a place in the world that will except her and her son. This is most difficult for her, because she can't find a decent job and her family won't help support her son. She becomes a short-order cook and falls in love, a brief affair that makes her want a relationship, that will bring affection and security for herself and her baby. The job doesn't last long, neither do her relationships. She moves from job to job and man to man. She feels as if nothing is working for her. And that she's not accepted in society. She tries to go to the army, but doesn't get in. She becomes a night club dancer and loves that, but her new partner drops her for another women. She then works at a house for prostitution. She makes no money prostituting but as the business manager it works out for her but only a little while. Her many challenges in life has helped succeed in life, and in her careers. Her harsh experiences helped her become a great writer, and poet. I liked this book a lot. No matter what she never gave up and that is what made her strong. She is a "Phenomenal Women."

4.0 von 5 Sternen Gather Together in my name, 17. April 2000
Von Ein Kunde
There's no question why children all over the world are advised to read this book. This is the second of Maya Angelou's books that I have read, and I really enjoyed it. It's truthful and honest, but frankly, some parts of the book disgusted me. But, although I don't agree with some of the author's choices, this book is a good read. However, because of some of the content, I would only recommended it to a mature reader. If you want to read a book which doens't hide the fact that everyone makes mistakes, give this one a try.
