Communion: The Female Search for Love from Harper Paperbacks Price: $9.97 Customer Review:  I have recommended this book to all those women in my life who have sold out to the patriarchal values in American culture because I want them to find communion with a more enlightened man and not settle for anything less. |

Black Looks: Race and Representation from South End Press Price: $15.00 Customer Review:  Until now I have only read excerpts from bell hooks' works. Then I recently saw a C-Span program in which bell hooks led a discussion with a college audience. Reminded of the intriguing excerpts I had read, I chose Black Looks as my first full encounter with this intriguing woman's thoughts. |

Yearning: Race, Gender, and Cultural Politics from South End Press Price: $12.24 Customer Review:  Being substantially outside of Bell Hooks' target audience, I confess a certain amount of difficulty in hearing what she has to say. Frankly, I had to read this book twice in order to get past her offensive terminology. "Whiteness" is the foundational problem for Hooks, and it leads to racism,... |

Teaching Community from Routledge Price: $12.21 Customer Review: I read the previous review before I read the book. I actually agreed with his take before I read it, except "Teaching Community" starts out mostly about the "Teaching Community", meaning the struggles of being a professor. |

Remembered Rapture: The Writer at Work from Owl Books (NY) Price: $11.26 Customer Review: Hooks' life absolutely depends on writing. In fact, she talks about writing to *avoid death* in many places throughout this collection of essays: there's the confessional writing that she does to avoid suicide early on in her writing life; there's also other more figurative deaths including despair... |
