Synopsis
bell hooks writes of a period of her life when she was caught in a romance that was often painful. She hopes to get her first manuscript published, struggles to gain respect in academia, and reads influential authors as she works out her feminist views. She includes excerpts from her journals of the period, written in the third person. This memoir follows BONE BLACK: Memories of a Girlhood.

Publisher's Note
With her customary boldness and insight, bell hooks describes a woman's struggle to devote herself to writing, sharing the difficulties, the triumphs, the pleasures, and the dangers.
Wounds of Passion is a memoir about writing, love, and sexuality. With her customary boldness and insight, Bell Hooks critically reflects on the impact of birth control and the women's movement on our lives. Resisting the notion that love and writing don't mix, she begins a fifteen-year relationship with a gifted poet and scholar, who inspires and encourages her. Writing the acclaimed book Ain't I a Woman: Black Women and Feminism at the age of nineteen, she begins to emerge as a brilliant social critic and public intellectual. Wounds of Passion describes a woman's struggle to devote herself to writing, sharing the difficulties, the triumphs, the pleasures, and the dangers. Eloquent and powerful, this book lets us see the ways one woman writer works to find her own voice while creating a love relationship based on feminist thinking. With courage and wisdom she reveals intimate details and provocative ideas, offering an illuminating vision of a writer's life.

Industry reviews
"In her 15th book, hooks continues the memoir she began in 'Bone Black'...
Davis 

"hooks has fashioned a hypnotic, faintly otherworldly memoir that is at once familiar and refreshingly unique."
Shindler
