In the world of academia, she has the status of a rock star. She is also easily one of the most influential voices in education. When bell hooks speaks, people listen. At the same time, this powerful commentator is concerned about the way we live in opposition to our roots and our place upon this earth. As she writes eloquently about the possibility of sustaining life, hooks considers the ethos of care and the creation of meaning, especially the meaning of lives. She relates this sense of meaning to the sense of place, which in her case is Kentucky. Many of her essays focus on the land and its ownership, the rural tradition, regionalism, the self in place, connection, community, the past, the present, ending where one began, and knowing what is whole and holy. Her essays on the esthetics of blackness are particularly moving. Annotation ©2009 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
