Sobre este item
New York: Pantheon Books, 1998. First Edition. Hardcover. Fine/Fine. Signed by Angela Davis on the half-title. A brilliant analysis of the blues tradition that examines the careers of three crucial black women blues singers through a feminist lens. The civil rights icon provides the historical, social, and political contexts with which to reinterpret the performances and lyrics of Gertrude "Ma" Rainey, Bessie Smith, and Billie Holiday as powerful articulations of an alternative consciousness profoundly at odds with mainstream American culture. Octavo. Light bump to the spine heel; else fine in a fine dust jacket.
