I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings
de Angelou, Maya
Titled after a stanza from Paul Laurence Dunbar’s poem
“Sympathy,” I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings is the first of a series of seven autobiographical
novels by African-American poet and writer Maya Angelou. Personally deeply
involved and affected by the civil rights movement, the volume explores racism
and identity in her early life.
I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings was nominated for the National
Book Award in 1970. However, due to its depiction of controversial subjects
such as sexuality, lesbianism and rape, the use of the novel in classrooms has
been frequently challenged.
Identificación de primeras ediciones
Random House published the first edition of the novel in
1969. Markings for a first edition are characteristic of the publisher with the
words "First Edition" clearly stated on the copyright page. The first
issue also has a red-stained top edge.
Otras ediciones de colección
In 1999, Easton Press published a special limited edition of
I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings in full leather with gold accents, silk end
papers, and a ribbon marker.
