Book Review: Song Of My Life

Song of My Life
A Biography of Margaret Walker
Carolyn Brown
Copyright 2014

Although a rather short biography this biography of Margaret Walker is pretty detailed.  The author was able to create this book using some information taken from Margaret Walkers unpublished unfinished biography.

Reading this book will allow you to get a good glimpse into Margaret Walkers life and education.   You will discover a very determined intelligent young writer who made friends with the likes of such famous poets as Gwendolyn Brooks and Langston Hughes.

We learn that in 1988 Margaret Walker had a branch of the Hinds county library named after her.

I give this book five out of five stars...
