A stunning autobiography, I Know Why The Caged Bird Sings is arguably Maya Angelou's best-known work. It is a heart-wrenching coming-of-age story that follows Marguerite from ages 3 to 13, and grapples with issues such as racism, trauma, rape, and abandonment. However, as in the poetic image of its title, I Know Why The Caged Bird Sings shows us the strength, hope, and courage in Marguerite as she rises beyond the trials and tribulations of her youth.
