Anything We Love Can Be Saved

Anything We Love Can Be Saved (1998)

 

 

“As a fighter against social injustice Walker is inspirational; as a black woman struggling with divorce, motherhood and catboxes, she is engaging and empathetic”
Daily Telegraph

In a world where cynicism is commonplace, it is refreshing to read the words of Alice Walker.  In this thought provoking book, she reasserts the power of political engagement in saving the things we treasure and the world we live in.  Beginning with an autobiographical essay about the roots of her own activism, Alice Walker goes on to explore divers public issues such as single parenthood, freeedom of the press, cicil rights and religion, blending wit and wisdom in equal measure.

“She has a way with words, an ear for cadences and thank goodness – a sense of humor.  Inspirational, evocative writing”
Scotsman
