Roger Gawne’s Reviews > The Selected Works of Audre Lorde > Status Update

I have just finished the section that the audiobook calls “Prose - A Burst of Light: Living With Cancer”. It is a single “chapter” that is more than three hours long, making it hard to pace oneself; my understanding is that it’s excerpts from a full book of the same name. It was incredible, and I will surely have to read the book on its own & in its fullness.

Just finished The Uses of Anger: Women Responding to Racism and I feel like I need it painted over every wall.

I re-started this as an audiobook a lil while back (I think about two weeks ago?). I paused it before “my mother’s mortar” and returned today. It’s due in 6 days, so let’s see if I can finish it in time.
I definitely want to read & mark my physical copy, and do so slowly, but given that this has sat on my “currently reading” for literally years, it seemed time to re-commit at least to a first pass.
