The Heart of a Woman (an outfit post and a book recommendation / Srce žene (odjevna objava i preporuka knjige)
Hello! In this post, I'll share a book recommendation. The Heart of a Woman is a memoir by Maya Angelou. The events she describes in this book take place between 1957 and 1962 and in that sense this book is a continuation of her previous memoirs. I do admire her courage when it comes to blending literature with autobiography. It is not an easy task and only a few have really gotten away with it. To narrate one's life, any period of it, in such an intimate way demands great courage, but turning that narration into a literature takes a kind of discipline and self restraint only great writers have, thought people generally don't realize how hard writing on this level really is. Years ago, I found a quote by Maya that really moved me but instead of looking her up immediately, I decided to wait. My intuition told me that a book by her will arrive at the perfect moment. Having read doctor Martin Luther King's autobiography earlier this year put many events in context.

DeleteYou are such a brilliant artists and perhaps hairstylist is in your bag of tricks too? You design hair very well on paper anyway. By the way, Baja is a city in California pronounced Ba-ha. Now I have translated the joke to English :)

ReplyDeleteČim si jučer rekla da imaš kist u ruci, znala sam da nas opet čeka nešto fantastično i pogodila sam! Predivna je, i znaš da se već duže razmišljam obojati ovako, samo nikako da se baš odlučim. Svaka čast, i na čestitki za Šminkolinu, ne znam koja mi je posebnija <3
ReplyDeleteYou're always very inspired for your inspired for your illustrations Ivana! Thanks for sharing!
