Her writing penetrated concentric layers of darkness to allow "...truth to see the light." p. 180.
Stars: 4/5
When reading Looking for Lorraine you will be immersed in everything Lorraine Hansberry. From her literary work, large & small, public & private, to her family, mentors, contemporaries, colleagues, friends and foes. All of these are interwined with Lorriane's activism; for example, you wouldn't understand the complexity of her relationships or the true meaning of her art, without understanding what she believed in and what she was fighting for. Kudos to Prof. Imani Perry for her scholarship and bringing us Lorraine as we haven't seen her before.
