    All about Love: New Visions

    A New York Times bestseller and enduring classic, All About Love is the acclaimed first volume in feminist icon bell hooks' "Love Song to the Nation" trilogy. All About Love reveals what causes a polarized society, and how to heal the divisions that cause suffering. Here is the truth about love, and inspiration to help us instill caring, compassion, and strength in our homes, schools, and workplaces."The word 'love' is most often defined as a noun, yet we would all love better if we used it as a verb," writes bell hooks as she comes out fighting and on fire in All About Love. Here, at her most provocative and intensely personal, renowned scholar, cultural critic and feminist bell hooks offers a proactive new ethic for a society bereft with lovelessness--not the lack of romance, but the lack of care, compassion, and unity. People are divided, she declares, by society's failure to provide a model for learning to love. As bell hooks uses her incisive mind to explore the question "What is love?" her answers strike at both the mind and heart. Razing the cultural paradigm that the ideal love is infused with sex and desire, she provides a new path to love that is sacred, redemptive, and healing for individuals and for a nation. The Utne Reader declared bell hooks one of the "100 Visionaries Who Can Change Your Life." All About Love is a powerful, timely affirmation of just how profoundly her revelations can change hearts and minds for the better.

    Ferite di passione. Una vita di scrittura

    Guardare dentro di sé è il primo passo per sfidare il mondo. "Ferite di passione" è l'autobiografia dell'attivista e scrittrice bell hooks: il racconto personale delle esperienze, degli incontri, delle vittorie e delle delusioni che l'hanno portata a diventare una delle voci più influenti del femminismo contemporaneo. 'Nascere femmina negli anni cinquanta voleva dire entrare in un mondo in cui si credeva che per una giovane donna l'evento più importante al raggiungimento della maggiore età fosse il matrimonio.' Sin da quando ha dieci anni, la piccola Gloria (bell hooks) vuole invece fare la scrittrice. Confessarlo è impossibile - il padre è convinto che i libri che divora le rovineranno il futuro -, ma da quella realizzazione il suo sguardo sul mondo si fa più acuto e attento. Osservando le liti in famiglia, specie quando la madre viene picchiata dal marito geloso, capisce che cos'è il possesso. Intercettando gli sguardi curiosi dei compagni di liceo bianchi, che cos'è la razza. Leggendo i nomi dei poeti, tutti maschi, nei libri dell'università, che cos'è il patriarcato. Nella relazione con un uomo colto e più grande, infine, capisce che cos'è, in tutta la sua complessità, in tutta la sua difficoltà, in tutta la sua pericolosità, l'amore. E che cosa significhi volere davvero l'amore, senza sacrificare se stessi e la propria libertà. In queste pagine, scritte alternando ricordi intimi e riflessioni mature, bell hooks ci conduce tra gli episodi cruciali della sua vita per sviscerare i nodi centrali del suo pensiero. Ferite di passione è la testimonianza unica di un'esistenza dedicata a esprimere ciò che spesso viene taciuto. A usare le parole non come menzogna, manipolazione, abuso, ma per spogliare la realtà da stereotipi e false ovvietà, mettendo a nudo il desiderio, le cicatrici, il piacere, il dolore: per dire la sua verità.

    Sisters of the Yam

    Black Women and Self-Recovery

    "Sisters of the Yam, with its mixture of personal narrative, cultural critique, brief literary analyses, and plain, old-fashioned, kitchen table common-sense advice, might very well reach beyond the university to the diverse groups of people that have been hooks’s ‘intended’ audience throughout much of her speaking and writing." —Sandra Adell, African American Review (1995) "In Sisters of the Yam, hooks articulates black women’s healing as an expression of ‘liberatory political practice.’ This statement transformed my consciousness as a health activist. By simply caring for myself, I can be a revolutionary. . ." —Sariane Leigh, The Feminist Wire (2012)

    Yearning

    Race, Gender, and Cultural Politics

    Praise for the book: "For hooks, radical cultural criticism is rooted in a commitment to black liberation struggle. She examines representations of black people and black life in literature and popular culture to understand how such representations enhance and undermine the capacity of African-Americans to determine their own fate. She focuses, in particular, on the ways in which such representations work to either enslave or liberate blacks, reinforce or challenge racism in whites, and sustain or subvert white supremacy. She also remains critical of the ways in which both women's liberation and black liberation continue to be practiced as if black women did not exist." —Clifford L. Staples, Postmodern Culture (1992)

    1. bell hooks

    Ain't I a Woman

    Black Women and Feminism

    Praise for the book: "Ain’t I a Woman is one of the most interesting, lucid books dealing with the subject of Feminism. The book can be recommended wholeheartedly to anyone who is interested in black history, in women’s history, or in that much-overlooked connection between the two." —Maria K. Mootry Ikerionwu, Phylon (1983) "…an absorbing delineation of the American black woman’s mark(s) of oppression at the hands of racist, misogynist, imperialist, capitalist patriarchy….Feminists must read this book…" —Cheryl Clarke, Off Our Backs (1982) "Since the publication of Ain’t I A Woman in 1981, bell hooks has become one of the United States’ most acute cultural critics. Writing from a clearly stated position as an African American woman, hooks’s early work helped re-map feminist theory in the United States with her consistent analysis of the interrelationships of race, gender and class in contemporary cultural life." —Sally Keenan, Journal of American Studies (1995)
