Reseña del libro "It was the way she Said it: Short Stories, Essays, and Wisdom (en Inglés)"

From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of How Stella Got Her Groove Back and Waiting to Exhale comes a remarkable, career-spanning collection of short fiction and essays about love, aging, culture and all the things in between. For the first time, a single volume brings together renowned author Terry McMillan's previously published short fiction and nonfiction pieces, as well as never-before-seen works. Before McMillan found success as a novelist in the early 1990s, she published provocative, boundary-pushing short stories, capturing the struggles and triumphs of Black life in America with vitality and honesty, from the workaday factory man's malaise in "The End" to the cast-aside lover's resolve in "Touching" to the elderly woman's wiles in "Ma'Dear." McMillan's inimitable voice bravely explores the dark corners of human relationships with compassion, humor, and nuance. This collection also features five unpublished stories that reveal how she wrestled with controversial topics rarely addressed in short fiction, from domestic abuse in "Mama, Take Another Step" to extreme poverty in "Can't Close My Eyes to It." Whether she's revealing life lessons, pontificating about aging, recalling her sources of inspiration, or laying bare the beginnings of her life as a writer, McMillan approaches every piece with enduring candor, wit, and fearlessness. Devoted fans and new readers alike will be delighted to discover these treasures spanning McMillan's long, groundbreaking career. Indeed, it wasn't only what Terry McMillan has said that made her so beloved . . . it was the way she said it.
