Product details

"I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings" by Maya Angelou is an autobiographical memoir that chronicles her life from early childhood to young adulthood. The book presents her experiences growing up as a Black girl in the segregated American South during the 1930s and 1940s. Angelou recounts the hardships shaped by racism, sexual abuse, and poverty, including her rape at age eight by her mother’s boyfriend and the trauma that followed.

The title metaphor of the caged bird symbolizes Angelou’s feelings of confinement and oppression under racism and sexism. Despite these challenges, her love of literature and the mentorship of strong women helped her find her voice and resilience. The narrative explores themes of identity, trauma, survival, and the power of self-expression and dignity.
