Anything We Love Can Be Saved: A Writer's Activism Paperback - 1998

by Alice Walker

The beloved author of "The Color Purple" writes of her life as an activist, in a book rich in the belief that the world is salvageable--if only we will act. She offers advice to Bill Clinton, to Fidel Castro, and to young women growing up. She comments on culture and cats, feminism and race, writing and living.


From the jacket flap

In Anything We Love Can Be Saved, Alice Walker writes about her life as an activist, in a book rich in the belief that the world is saveable, if only we will act. Speaking from her heart on a wide range of topics--religion and the spirit, feminism and race, families and identity, politics and social change--Walker begins with a moving autobiographical essay in which she describes her own spiritual growth and roots in activism. She goes on to explore many important private and public issues: being a daughter and raising one, dreadlocks, banned books, civil rights, and gender communication. She writes about Zora Neale Hurston and Salman Rushdie and offers advice to Bill Clinton. Here is a wise woman's thoughts as she interacts with the world today, and an important portrait of an activist writer's life.
