How Shall We Tell Each Other of the Poet?: The Life and Writing of Muriel Rukeyser
I got a good amount of info from this book and was glad I read it, but the setup is a little weird. Some stories are repeated a lot and stories from the time Harriet was a slave are kind of pushed towards the back and glossed over. So, this is mostly from her time of escape, the Underground Railroad and later life. Not that this isn't plenty of material. I guess there is only a certain amount of info out there and that is what the author had to work with. I just didn't understand the repetition--the book could've had about a third edited out. From what I see, there aren't THAT many books about Harriet and I think this may be among the best of the lot.
