| Summary, etc. | "Can't live with them, can't live without them. From time immemorial, men and women have engaged in the eternal struggle. No one is immune from the lures of the mysterious and perplexing differences that create so much of the exhilarating, frustrating, and romantic textures of our lives." "In this provocative collection of nonfiction pieces, Marita Golden, the critically acclaimed novelist, and fourteen other African-American women writers talk - each in their own distinctive style - about love, men, and sex. These essays - nine of which were written expressly for this book - range in style and content from Audre Lorde's now classic polemic on eroticism to Miriam DeCosta-Willis's moving essay about her husband to Audrey B. Chapman's hopeful "Black Men Do Feel About Love." Some are saucy, some spicy, a few use words not usually heard in polite company, and a few of them will leave you gasping or stunned. All of the essays are explorations into the contemporary black female psyche." "Golden has contributed an introduction and prefatory commentary for each piece, which adds luster to the whole. Unique in its concept, exemplary in its execution, Wild Women Don't Wear No Blues should quickly achieve an important place in the growing canon of African-American literature."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
