Description: When Maya Angelou published I know why the caged bird sings, her memoir of girlhood in the South, she left an indelible mark on the literary world. Since that debut over two decades ago, Angelou has further developed her self-possessed and powerful voice, charting the course of her fascinating and triumphant life in memoirs and poetry that culminated in the beautiful and inspiring poem On the Pulse of Morning, which she read at the inauguration of President Clinton. Here, for the first time, are the complete poetic works of Maya Angelou.--
